Porterhouse is humbled to announce the 30th Anniversary re-issue of ‘Exit The Dragon’ from Urge Overkill. Dark, brooding and laden with tension the double LP set is being brought back to life in a newly re-mastered custom vinyl configuration featuring Pink and Purple 12” vinyl with completely re-designed center labels.
Originally released on Geffen Records in 1995 the sprawling work is regarded by fans as a “criminally underrated” collection of compositions that never received the credit it so richly deserved. History has a way of separating the wheat from the chaff and the three decades that have passed since its original release have only cemented this recording’s epic status with both fans and critics.
Produced by the Butcher Brothers Joe and Phil Nicolo ‘Exit The Dragon’ shifts gears from the slick tone of its predecessor ‘Saturation’ and embraces a low-fi approach that balances perfectly with the album’s stark song selection, which addresses emotional upheaval, isolation and personal struggle. The result is a masterwork and it’s returning for your listening enjoyment. Shipping has begun, so get your order in today right here and be the first to celebrate when it arrives at your door!
Porterhouse power-pop purveyor Steven Bradley has entered the studio to record the follow up to ’Summer Bliss and Autumn Tears’ his critically acclaimed debut effort. Titled; ‘Becoming Who We Are’ Steven says “expect more of the same” with a heavier nod to Redd Kross and Urge Overkill, for all you nineties fans out there. We’ll post more news on guest performers and a release date as information becomes available. In the meantime feel free to peruse press and stream his debut 'Summer Bliss and Autumn Tears' right here.

Astounding good news friends and vinyl lovers! Porterhouse is bringing you the vinyl DEBUT of "Rocks Your Lame Ass," one of the most underrated punk and power-pop outings of the ‘90s. Produced by Bill Stevenson and Stephen Egerton of Descendents at the Blasting Room, this monster recording first appeared in CD format on London Records who never pressed the release on vinyl. Well, those days are gone. We have created a dynamite vinyl package that includes an insert with never seen photos and re-mastered audio that will cook! With nothing clocking at over 3 minutes this 14 song barn-burner keeps ‘em short, sweet and to the point. 30 years after its debut, this record still sounds as fresh and urgent as the day it was minted. We are only pressing 500 of these biscuits on Opaque Orange vinyl so make sure you come to the party by ordering a copy here before they all vanish… and they will!
Additionally, we have debuted a new variant of Urge Overkill's masterpiece "Saturation" and it may be the sickest color combination yet. Set on gorgeous Turquoise Opaque vinyl this one is offset with Silver, Black and Turquoise labels. Nothing has changed in the audio department and this re-mastered opus slams as hard as the original. Grab one to add to your collection, you will not be disappointed! Orders are on here and we have already begun delivering these gorgeous slabs!

Porterhouse Records is thrilled to announce the addition of Pointed Sticks to its roster. The band arrived with the west-coast's first wave of punk and power pop acts and were at the top of every critic's list. Their debut 'Perfect Youth' was an instant classic. With production from Bob Rock and artwork from Jimmy Cummings the package is considered a landmark in power-pop and punk circles. It was originally released on Vancouver's legendary Quintessence Records who ran into financial difficulty immediately after the record's November 1980 release. The band broke up shortly afterwards.
Flash forward to 2006 and Pointed Sticks reforming, bringing fans a string of full length releases capped by their latest, 'Beautiful Future' which is available on 12" vinyl in our webstore. The LP features the single "Infected" which will be released shortly.
Porterhouse has absorbed the band's entire recorded catalog including the full-length LPs 'Three Lefts Make A Right' and the self-titled 'Pointed Sticks.' We will be releasing music both new and old from the band in the future!
We have cooked up a 45th Anniversary re-issue of 'Perfect Youth!' Featuring re-mastered audio courtesy of punk rock mastermind John Golden, a sweet Opaque Color slab, revamped insert with never seen photos and a foreword from Jack Rabid of Big Takeover Magazine, this one packs a whallop! Be sure to order this limited edition pressing here stream the entire Pointed Sticks catalog at the band's Artist Destination and catch them live as well. A warm Porterhouse welcome to Pointed Sticks!
