GENRE - Hardcore
RECORD LABEL - Triple B
Based in Los Angeles, California, Cosmic Joke are creating hardcore punk with a skate punk flair. Today, the band shares their debut album, Cosmic Joke, the first release on HardLore Records, which formed after two years as a podcast and in collaboration with Triple B Records. The nine songs on the self-titled album are slinky with a melodic punch and plenty of guitar riffs. Taking influence from acts like Bad Religion, Circle Jerks, and Descendents, they’re able to create an infectious sound driven by punk-pop sensibilities. Lyrically, the record heavily revolves around consumerism, looking inward and outward at always wanting more than you have and it never being enough.
The album was completed in two sessions with Tracks 1-4 recorded and mixed in March 2023 at the Pit in Van Nuys, CA by Taylor Young. Tracks 5-9 originally appeared on the demo and were recorded by the band’s guitarist, Vince Amador in Oxnard, CA and mixed by Jon Markson. All tracks were mastered by Nick Townsend.

Vinyl Orders - Please note that we do our best to protect vinyl records ideally for shipping, using our custom made mailers and additional cardboard squares. However, we can not guarantee that no damage on the way occurs. Ordering is at one's own risk. Vinyl might be delivered unsealed as we have to open copies to check vinyl colours, if not sufficiently labeled by the distributor / label.

These mock ups are digital representations of what we expect the final product to look like - however they do not represent the final product. Final vinyl pressings, prints, etc. may look slightly different.
