Thursday vocalist Geoff Rickly has officially launched his label, Brooklyn-based Collect records, and has already announced their first run of releases.
These will include the sophomore album from D.C.-based post-rock experimentalists Black Clouds, a debut single and full-length album from Vanishing Life (featuring members of Quicksand and ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead), a co-release with Terrible Records from hardcore provocateurs Sick Feeling.
Rickly made the following comments on the launch:
"The chance to empower other musicians to follow their dreams has been totally revitalizing for me,most of the people here at Collect have played in bands, toured, and worked tirelessly because they love music past any reasonable point. So if the mission of Collect is to give great records a supportive home, then we all know what that means. And it means a lot to us."
