Equal Vision Records
Encyclopedia
Equal Vision Records is a record label
based in Albany, New York
, which has a focus in metal or punk-based rock genres. Equal Vision Records was founded in the early 1990s by Ray Cappo
(Youth of Today
, Shelter
, Better Than a Thousand
).
The label originally existed solely to distribute Shelter
and other krishna
releases. In 1992, label manager Steve Reddy bought EVR from Cappo. The focus was expanded and a wider variety of bands were brought on board. According to Punk News, "The mid-to-late '90s saw a redoubling of the Equal Vision's hardcore efforts with such signings as One King Down
and Ten Yard Fight
. By the end of the '90s EVR found itself with an impressive stable of hardcore and punk bands, having added Bane
, Trial
, Converge
and Saves the Day
to its roster in the latter part of the decade."
In July 2009 Equal Vision Records created a sub-label named Mantralogy. This sub-label will feature bands that "deliver edgy, Krishna
-conscious music."
