Modern Peasant Records - Resistance is Feudal

Modern Peasant Records

Welcome to Episode 43 of Doc Rockavoy's Indy Music Garage! Today the show is dedicated to Modern Peasant Records, a Norman OK-based punk, garage, and stoner rock label. The label was started by Robert and Nate from The Putters back in 2010 to put out The Putters annual jam session/recording sessions in Ellensburg, where Nate lives. Then is morphed into a music publishing platform for Robert and Nate's "whore bands," or bands that were not The Putters, like Zombie vs. Shark and The 667s. Then it just became more like a community-based record label for friends of Robert and Nate, taking on bands like John Wayne's Bitches, Red Cities, and The Sinners. It's motto is "Resistance is Feudal," and it's basically aimed to put out all the rad music that the crappy, major record industry won't publish, and that is local in nature. All good indie music is local, so that is where MPR's work is concentrated. To date, Modern Peasant Records has put out 13 releases, with more in the future from Norman/Chickasha band Bite Me! and some other stuff on the horizon.

So be sure to support your local record labels and its bands! You can learn more about Modern Peasant Records and order records from: www.modernpeasantrecords.com
