Punks and Rogues
Underground Distribution

If it ain't cheap, it ain't punk!

Update: Feb 23 2021

Got a few new Compact Discs in stock, and discovered a couple of things that we thought were sold out.

You know what's great about CDs? They play in your car, you can easily rip them to MP3, and we sell them SUPER CHEAP! They are the most unfashionable format around, which makes them kinda cool. High quality, fully functional CD players are alot easier to find in at your local thrift store than a cassette player or turntable these days. Start a CD collection!

ZINES

We plan to start distributing zines soon.

We will TRADE stuff from our inventory for copies of your zine, depending on the content.

We like zines that are weird, punk, cut-and-paste, obsessive, and/or substantial in size and content. Offensive and/or insane is also cool.

Poetry zines, flimsy over-priced showcases of dull artwork, and most "perzines" are not of interest to us. (In other words, most zines made today suck.) No one wants to pay $10 for a book of your poetry or artwork, and we don't want to be given the unpleasant job of trying to sell crap like that.

If it isn't bizarre, deranged, obessive, or punk, we probably don't want it.

General rule of thumb: If it ain't cheap, it ain't punk!


Prices do not include postage.
The cheapest rate (USPS Media Mail) will be used whenever possible.

Some imports have to be priced higher, due to our costs to import them.

Contact us to order:

Inquiries about trades and distribution, also use the address above.

We used to book DIY punk shows. We don't really do that anymore. But we do know people who do. If your band is looking for a show in Salt Lake, feel free to get in touch, and we'll try to put you in touch with someone who can help.



ABOUT PUNKS AND ROGUES

This distro is operated by the band: The Usurpers.

We are a DISTRO. "Distro" is short for distribution.

"Distro" does not mean "I make and sell things". (Though some people seem to think so.) A distro is a DIY approach to distributing music, zines, buttons, or whatever.

We sell to individuals, but we TRADE in quantity with bands, labels, and (other) distros. (We also sell wholesale to record stores, and we'll trade with people who make stuff.)

The operator(s) of this distro DO make things (records for our band). But instead of just trying to sell thousands of copies ourselves, we choose to network with others (bands, labels, record stores, zine publishers) for mutual benefit.

We TRADE our records, and other stuff in our distro, for stuff other DIY creators have made.

This not only helps us to spread our band's records around the world, but it HELPS OTHER BANDS get their stuff spread, and GROWS THE UNDERGROUND PUNK SCENE.

This distro's goal isn't to make money. The goal is to spread music we believe in, and to help grow an underground DIY network that exists outside of the corporate mainstream. We have to at least get close to break even, to remain viable in the long-run, but we sell stuff as cheaply as we can, and spread it as far as we can.

YOU NEED DISTRIBUTION

Contact us. Whether you are a BAND, LABEL, or another DISTRO, we want to help you move your releases and get them into the hands of people who will LISTEN to them and appreciate them!

BENEFITS OF DISTRIBUTION

Yeah, you can just sell your stuff at your merch table, or on Etsy or whatever. But with distribution, your stuff can reach people who you'll never meet. (Besides, do you want to be known as an "Etsy" punk band?)

Plus, imagine the extra sales you can make at your merch table to repeat customers, if you have more than just 1-2 things to sell? By trading, you get extra stuff you can sell at your merch table AFTER they have already bought your new record, etc. More sales is more money to fund your next release, your tour, or whatever.

TRADE WITH US!

We trade like-for-like:

DARK CORNERS

Most of the internet these days is lame as shit. Except you can still find some weird and interesting stuff out there, away from the mega-corporate sites, in the dark corners of the web that most people never look in. (Neocities is full of interesting stuff.)

But we don't want any daylight to intrude into this little dark corner of ours, so this site is set to NOINDEX/NOFOLLOW. So, Google can suck it. We don't want to be indexed, cataloged, filed, or numbered! And so we have placed the appropriate meta tags in our code to tell Google and others to fuck off.

TECHNICAL JUNK

If you don't want everything you do on the web to be spied on, we recommend the following browsers:

And instead of using social media so much, maybe build your own web site!
