Unfortunately not, sold out a long time ago.

I put out the Tear It Up / Down In Flames split 7". I was really good friends with those guys since the Dead Nation days. I was in a band that used to play with them all the time, and those dudes ran a cool label called "Slaughterhouse" and I ran a little label called "8 bit records" and we used to support each others bands and labels. After Dead Nation broke up, they blew up and Tear It Up kind of capitalized on that popularity and became somewhat popular seemingly overnight. I was doing a band called "Something In The Water" with John Devlin from Down In Flames and I knew that DIF and TIU were good friends who played a lot, and I was good friends with both bands so I offered to put out a split. I won't get into the details, but those dudes kind of screwed me over for no good reason. When I offered to put out the record they didn't even have a demo out yet, and by the time the split came out they had their 1st 7" and were already popular and their attitudes totally changed, it was really silly. I guess everyone was young and a little dumb back then (this was like 10 years ago) so maybe it's better to just leave the past in the past.

Pretty sure I have this one somewhere at my parents' house. It may be a different issue of Meat Sheets though. Next time I'm there I'll check around for it. If I can find it/it's the right issue, I'll send it to you.

So, you were doing Die Hardcore Records?

If it's the same guy I'm thinking of , he started a label called Plays with Dolls and still owes me a Vivian Girls 7".
*kinda kidding but I did enter into a Paypal dispute with him; didn't know until a few years later that he was in Tear It Up, etc. VG eventually took back a bunch of singles from him and I was able to get one at one of their shows, FWIW.

I don´t think that Matt started any label ever.
It is probably some other dude.
