No Sweat defines the market for goods that support independent trade unions - the only historically proven solution to sweatshops. We market direct to consumers, relying primarily on internet sales for distribution. We provide a competitive product to you and a living wage to our workers. How? By not advertising.

"The awesomely rostered Teenage Disco Bloodbath Records stands out
with a passion driven basis of quality and integrity."
-Metal Maniacs Magazine
Hunter S. Thompson once said that "The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.". On the other end of the spectrum, Will Killingsworth from Clean Plate Records states on his web site, "If you want something sleek, professional, and glossy you are going to have to look elsewhere. There are no pretensions here, just a stupid label with some stupid records. If I were you, I'd find this honesty refreshing." I'd like to think that our philosophies on running a label exist somewhere near the fine line that separates Hunter Thompson's experiences in the corporate music industry and Will's refreshingly "who gives a shit" DIY attitude.
TDB Records has been active since 2003 when Jonah Livingston (Backstabbers Inc., Ramming Speed) dropped out of the music industry program at Northeastern University. Growing from humble aspirations, TDB has become an internationally rostered, solidly distributed, full time project based in Boston, MA. Joined in 2006 by Northeastern Political Science major Caitlin Kelly, the label has taken on the goals of not only releasing passionate and intense Metal and Hardcore music, but also keeping political, social, and environmental concerns a priority. We make every attempt to work with companies that have positive environmental practices, work with local artists, do benefit events, and generally pull our weight.
Though we aren't interested in helping anyone play giant Clear Channel venues or getting CD's into corporate music chains, If we can expose people to awesome bands and expose bands to awesome people then we're happy with where our time and effort is going. We appreciate your support and please get in touch if you'd like to talk about our records, music, or just life in general.

Doom will never die, DOOMRAISER too! As one door closes, another opens. Valerio has decided to leave the band; he wants to concentrate more on his other projects. We all wish Valerio the best of luck with his new vocation. He was, and remains, a formidable guitarist and was an integral part of DOOMRAISER. However, it is with great pleasure that DOOMRAISER announce that Valerio’s replacement is to be none other than our good friend and brother, the fearsomely talented musician Willer. He played bass with evil blacksters Grimness and he’s involved in Black Land, an awesome and obscure heavy psychedelic band from Rome. Practices have been going very well, and Willer is already adding a new, acid and exciting dimension to the band as a whole. His first gig will be at Sinister Noise Club in Rome on the 21th November: a special and drunken night celebrating the birthday of one of the most important Italian underground rock scene club! Stay tuned… and slower, harder, drunker!
