Tooth and Nail Records is an
indie punk rock label based out of
Seattle with the prestigious Branden Ebel at the head of it. Usually the company likes to
screw over the
bands that are on its label, and most of the time the bands are not popular enough to do anything about it. But hey, they are a
christian label(aren't they?). For marketing and other reasons the label has several branches. BEC Recordings is the label their more popular bands go for better distribution. The other branches are Solid State, where all the
hardcore goes, and Plasiq Music, where all the electronic stuff goes. Its a decent label, they just are jerks to the bands when it comes to writing contracts with them.
MxPx even wrote a hate song about the label once.
Some of the great bands on T&N:
Slick Shoes
Dogwood
Further Seems Forever
Stavesacre
Ghoti Hook
