Clark Sabine 1975-2009
06.18.09
Clark Sabine, our friend and fellow musician, died Tuesday evening after a short but intense last battle with cancer. He was 33 years old. Clark played in Statehood, Andalusians, and Motorcycle Wars, where his hilarious and ridiculous stage entrances are still legend around these parts. He was a character with manic creative energy who held a deep affection for all of us who shared his passion for music in the Washington, DC underground.
He will be missed.

The Dischord LP Re-Mastered Series
04.10.09
In mid 2008 Dischord Records began re-mastering and re-cutting much of our vinyl catalog here in the United States (after years of making our records in Europe). The first of these re-mastered LPs appeared at the end of 2008 and we will continue to roll out newly re-issued LPs throughout 2009. We began by re-pressing current titles, and later re-issuing older titles, all re-cut at Chicago Mastering Service (many from from the Silver Sonya masters). All the re-mastered albums feature complimentary MP3 album downloads.
For a complete list of our re-mastered LPs go here: Dischord re-mastered LPs

About Dischord Records
Dischord Records was created in 1980 to document the music coming out of the Washington, D.C. punk community. The label has put out the work of over 40 bands, and has distributed hundreds of other releases connected to the D.C. area. We will continue our work as long as this community continues to create music that speaks to us. Thanks.
