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.

Out now is Rubella Ballet 'Anarchy In The U.V.' It includes two unreleased tracks, their debut cassette tape Ballet Bag (1982) , the 4 track 7" EP Ballet Dance (1982), their debut album At Last Its Play Time (1985) and the 12” version of Money Talks (1985) all digitally remastered and packed in a 12-page booklet designed by Sid and Zillah.
Next up, due out in February 2009 is 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.
Some of the releases to have recently sold out are: The Mighty Lemon Drops, both Vibrators titles, The Wasps, Reality, Alex Fergusson and Cleveland Confidential. If you see a copy of any grab it as they'll not be repressed.
About to sell out are: Punishment of Luxury 'Gigantic Days', Door and the Window, Gary Valentine, ATV 'Apollo' and Jowe Head.
All the best
