Lockjaw Records was founded in 1997 by brothers Ben, Jim and Sam Turner of Tribute To Nothing. First releases included great albums by underground luminaries such as New York’s UNSANE, California’s ZEN GUERRILLA, and a compilation track from SHELTER. 

Lockjaw is also proud to lay claim to releasing the first ever recording by the now mighty MUSE on the ‘Helping You Back To Work’ compilation Volume 1. 

Lockjaw Records is all about this stuff:

 

Music, Preferably good and loud. 

Worcester, not really what we are about but the label lives here and that’s the way it is.

It’s crap but you’ve gotta love it. 

Small Bikes, with small wheels ridden by small men. 

 

Peeps:

 

El Boss Grande.- Syd Emery

Press Stuff, Drums, Ginger – Lee (Jacko) Jackson

Random Intern – Currently hooked up is Jon Sinfield off of Shirukume.

 

Props to our distributors Code 7, PHD, 7us and Black Star Foundation.

Also to Sam, Ben and Jim for starting the shenanigans all those years ago and to Jack for giving me a chance to rock the Lockjaw name. 

Lastly, the bands, past and present they are/were awesome yo.
