Relapse Records turned 30 years old this year, and they're closing out their celebration with a free 241-song sampler. The sampler features alumni of the label like Mastodon and The Dillinger Escape Plan, current artists like Yob and Full of Hell, and tons of others you might not have even heard of (but need to hear).
"As we look forward to 2021, Relapse Records would like to leave you with one last surprise," said the label. "2020 not only marked a year of challenges and change for us all, but it also marked the label's 30th anniversary. With this in mind, we'd like to invite you to check out the Relapse Records 30th Anniversary Sampler!
"The sampler features over 200 songs highlighting the massive, diverse Relapse roster. From legendary Death Metal institutions such as Obituary, Death, Suffocation, and more, to the groundbreaking discordant sounds of Repulsion, Pig Destroyer, and Nasum, this sampler features some of the most brutal and pulverizing metal in our catalog. Bands such as Yob, Neurosis, and Primitive Man bring their doom to crushing effect, and with an eye towards the future, the critically acclaimed Nothing, Torche, Inter Arma and more, showcase the unique, varied history of the label.
"The sampler is available now via all streaming platforms. From everyone at Relapse, thank you for your countless support! We will see you next year!"
