Founded 10 years ago in San Francisco, Twelve Gauge Records (aka. TG Rex) has put out releases by Heavy Heavy Low Low, Power, No Sir, Nervous, and a slew of other forward-thinking hardcore bands. TG Rex kicks off 2015 with its 35th release, the new EP by Youth Funeral, which BrooklynVegan calls: “a complex, heavy slab of screamo in the Orchid/Loma Prieta/Deathwish Inc vein…”
