Earache

Earache Records is a British independent record label , music publisher and management company founded by Digby Pearson in 1985, based in Nottingham , England, with offices in London and New York . The label helped to pioneer extreme metal by releasing early grindcore and death metal records between the late 1980s and mid-1990s. Its roster has since diversified into more mainstream guitar music, working with bands such as Rival Sons , The Temperance Movement , Blackberry Smoke , Scarlet Rebels and the White Buffalo . The company also hosted the 'Earache Express' stage at Glastonbury Festival in 2017 and 'The Earache Factory' at Boomtown 2018. The label's logo is a homage to Thrasher magazine, as Pearson was a skateboard culture enthusiast.
