SLOTHS – “Twenty Years” [EP] (2014)

The Ghost Is Clear Records has released music from noisy, abrasive corners of independent punk and rock for well over a decade. Its early online catalogue was already active by 2010, and the label’s current discography continues with noise rock, post-hardcore, screamo and sludge.

American Motors recorded with J. Robbins and built their songs around repetition, melody and West Virginia detail. St. Louis band Iron Linings followed a 2022 split with Seaxes by making “Urban Abyss” their debut LP, and Boston duo BEDTIMEMAGIC have released two records on the label.

Missouri Executive Order 44 and Usurp Synapse shared a split, LLEWELYN brought grimy, melodic and technical chaos, and Mercy Ties connected a reunion to local scenes and shared history.
