What’s new at I Buy Records?

It’s been quite a few months since my last email — now that I’ve finally got a few minutes to breathe, I thought I’d send you a quick recap of what’s been going on since May.2025 is hands down the biggest year ever for I Buy Records! We’ve already released 10 albums, and there might be two more coming before the end of the year. And trust me — they’re both amazing… but it’s still a bit too early to talk about them 😉Anyway, let’s do a quick rundown!The first record I want to mention is The Jasons’ self-titled album. These guys from New Jersey really need no introduction, and as you can imagine, this record flew off the shelves. It’s their debut album, completely remixed and remastered for the occasion. The B-side features something totally new — a live in studio version of all the tracks from side A, plus a cool Huntingtons cover. There are still a few copies left in the splatter variants — you can grab one by clicking the image below.To celebrate The Dopamines’ mini European tour and the 15th anniversary of one of the best modern punk rock records ever, we reissued Expect The Worst with brand new artwork and an Italian twist — Aspettarsi Il Peggio! At the band’s own request, it’s a little tribute to Italy, Valentino Rossi, and their love for the Belpaese. A few copies are still available on our website. The other two albums I want to tell you about are both debut records that are very close to my heart — they come from bands made up of good friends of mine.Let’s start with NOPE, a brand-new band featuring veterans of the Milan punk scene (I Like Allie, Teenage Gluesniffers, and more). Their debut “Done Grieving” came out this summer during their European tour with The Dopamines and will be officially presented on November 15th at the Railroad in Paderno Dugnano, Milan.
It’s a really solid record in my opinion — definitely worth a listen on the I Buy Records Bandcamp!Then we have Sunshine Overload, a band from Ottawa, Canada, born a few years ago during the pandemic and made up of veterans of Ontario’s prolific punk scene. Their sound is a cool mix of punk rock, garage, and rock ’n’ roll — raw and gritty, yet super catchy.
The album was just released last week and is already getting great feedback. I highly recommend checking it out and, if you like it, you can grab a copy from our store! As usual, here’s the link to the store — I’m slowly updating the Distro section, adding lots of new albums from Buster Shuffle, Boris The Sprinkler, Backyard Babies, Adrenalin O.D. , Beatnik Termites etc etc
That’s all for now, I don’t have much more to add. I hope I didn’t bore you too much! 😄
If you have any suggestions or ideas, feel free to drop me a line — I always love hearing from you.Below you’ll find the upcoming shows across Europe from bands that have released something with me.
If you happen to be around, go say ciao, support them at the merch table, and give them a big hug from me!Cheers,
Andre
