Discos Suicidas

Discos Suicidas is a Spanish independent record label based in Biscay (Vizcaya), in the Basque Country. It was founded in the early 1980s and became one of the key independent labels of the Spanish punk and hardcore scene. The label was created specifically to release "Nahiko", the first single by the band Zarama. Its name — literally "Suicidal Records" — refers to the "commercial suicide" that releasing an album by a punk band singing in Euskera (Basque) was considered to be at the time. Over the decades, Discos Suicidas has worked with a long list of Spanish and Basque punk, rock and hardcore groups, including Reincidentes, El Último Ke Zierre, Eskorbuto, Doctor Deseo, Piperrak, Parabellum, Distorsión, Zarama, Don Cikuta, Bbs Paranoicos, Vómito, Radikal Hardcore and Ni Por Favor Ni Ostias, among others. One of its founders was Oskar Amezaga, a musician from the group Lavabos Iturriaga. The label remains associated with the independent, DIY ethos of the Basque punk movement and continues to operate its own website and catalogue.
