Information About

Load Records




It was begun by Ben McOsker to put a 7-inch record out for band Boss Fuel . The label quickly became the most prominent source for the noise music coming out of Providence, Rhode Island --loosely functioning in the same way that Sub Pop served Grunge out of Seattle in the early '90s. Some claim McOsker has released some of the most exciting noise/experimental music of the early '00s, including new music from Lightning Bolt , Neon Hunk , Metalux , Noxagt and Friends Forever . Others have attributed a cookie-cutter aesthetic to the label. Make up your own mind!

The music of Load Records is popularized and reviewed through national zines like Blastitude , Arthur and Dead Angel .
