Overground Records releases punk rock, anarcho punk, proto punk and other interesting reissues.
Overground Records started in 1988 inspired to reissue a few punk rock classics because back then there were few labels reissuing interesting punk records.
The first few releases were limited edition vinyl pressings, but with the advent of compact discs we started manufacturing CDs because we could include up to 74 minutes of music, making them better value.
Whilst the core of the catalogue is punk there are many other interesting releases and we shall continue with our policy of releasing anything we like.
Latest News from Overground
After something of a hiatus Overground Records is back! Forthcoming new releases include: Rubella Ballet (2nd August), Paranoid Visions (16th August) Subway Sect (October) and The Disrupters (November), with others to follow. Check back for regular updates.

Support is Gold Blade, except Manchester which is Paranoid Visions. Tickets available from: www.gigbox.co.uk
Last release was The Mob 'Let The Tribe Increase'. Remastered, the CD sounds far superior to the previous issues, includes a demo version of 'Stay' and is repackaged.
Much of the catalogue is now being deleted and many titles are down to the last few copies, never to be repressed. Where possible these will be available for download, but if you're wanting the physical product you should get them while you still can.
All the best
