That doesn’t stop them from shouting out news like it belongs on the front page. The following excerpt is from a recent press release announcing some of the label’s new CD releases. All the dashes are ours, but all the heart-stopping emphasis is theirs.

TKO Round 96 COCKNOOSE “Bad Men, Butchers & Bleeders” CD/LP
Holy S—!!! TKO is proud to be working with Lawrence, Kansas’ very own COCKNOOSE!!!! Right here, right now, we have the much anticipated reissue of ‘NOOSE’S legendary debut album, “Bad Men, Butchers, and Bleeders”. Originally released on the seminal Baloney Shrapnel Label, this lil’ gem has been *completely* remastered with bonus tracks. If you’ve never heard COCKNOOSE, then you will be blown away by their aggro mix of rock n roll, punk, and country. GOD——!

TKO Round 95 ANTiSEEN “Eat More Possum” CD/LP
Here we go! Another installment from the VAULT OF ANTiSEEN! “Eat More Possum” is one of the best slabs o’ rock ANTiSEEN ever put out. Featuring such hits as STORMTROOPER, STAR WHORE, ANIMALS…EAT ‘Em, and more, this is more grinding, ugly, punk f—ing rock that will have you screaming for more, or begging for it to end! haha. Anyhow, this is the s—, and it has been through way too many botched productions. So…check it out, cause here is the real deal, courtesy of ANTiSEEN and TKO Records!
TKO Round 120 Various Artists PUNCH DRUNK IV CD TKO RECORDS celebrates another year of dominating the true underground punk rock scene by, yet again, providing you, the listener, with some of the best rock you have ever heard!!!

OCTOBER 21, 2002
TKO Round 102 ANTiSEEN “Southern Hostility” CD/LP Because one dose of ANTiSEEN in one month is simply NOT enough, we will pummel you with TWO ANTiSEEN releases!!! This is some HIGHLY brutal s—, and possibly (In my opinion—up there w/ Honour…), ANTiSEEN’s crowning moment. Wall of distortion, destructo rock frenzy…here ya have it. This s— is as subtle as a kick to the teeth. GOD——!!!
