vacuous pop is an independent record label and live music promoter based in Oxford, England.
Established in 2002 and with previous releases from the likes of Cat on Form, Dustball, youthmovies, The Edmund Fitzgerald, randomNumber, Help She Can't Swim and Detwiije amongst others, vacuous pop has managed to avoid being pigeon holed by genre to produce a wide and diverse back catalogue.
Having always prided ourselves on the artists we've chosen to work with – for both releases and live shows - the tradition continues as the label enters a new era with a host of new releases for 2009, perhaps the best to date, from what we regard as some of the most vital, and exciting bands around today.
We will shortly be listing the whole catalogue here with links to buy the releases where still available.
We also promote a diverse range of live shows in Oxford and over the past 7 years have put on the Oxford debuts from the likes of Foals, The National, Bloc Party, Black Dice, Thee More Shallows, Tunng and many more.
Please take a look at our other profile page here for further information.

You are cordially invited to a special house show we are throwing, as a warm-up for our show with Crocodiles at Old Blue Last the following day. Places are strictly limited. Also playing is the wonderful Stairs To Korea.
The debut tape for Fair Ohs has 7 songs of their noisey garage punk meets Minutemen with the occasional psych noise jam. There are on 50 tapes, on a mix of purple, blue and lilac colours, all wrapped up in hand spun, hand stiched felt covers, pretty special!
This is an excerpt from the feature length film "Die Son! Die!" by Miles Perhower in association with elementary productions, starring the glorious Miss Halliwell. It is a concept concert album.. a film and an album.. it is a concert and a drama.. it is real life and fabrication. It is about the stalker and the stalked. It is the realisation of one man's madness. The music is blistering, the visuals engaging: it is the most watchable piece of art today. This is more than music and more than film. It is the post-modern Purple Rain. The Stourbridge Chronicle has already described it as "the most important milestone in cinematic history"; The New York Times' art correspondent said "If it was a hat, I would wear it"; Tony Wilson's ghost is reported to have whispered, "I wish I had thought of that". Entrepreneur and pop guru Alan Neilson wrote: "Isn't it great that Wispas are back." DIE SON! DIE! will be on general release at the end of August 2009. Best wishes from Miss H
