Graveface Records feels like a bit of an unusual success story for a label in 2026—and not just because of the fairly bizarre contents of their back catalog, which largely revolve around woozy psychedelic pop and haunted indie-folk. Whereas most indies launched in the early 2000s have blown up with the help of a cash-cow release or two or dried up completely over the years, the label founded by former Black Moth Super Rainbow member Ryan Graveface has spent the past few years expanding the “and curiosities” addendum to their name with museums in their two hometowns of Savannah, Georgia and Chicago, as well as their more recent Terror Vision video stores in both cities.
To celebrate the label’s 25th anniversary, today they’ve announced a new Revival Series record club that will feature a year’s worth of vinyl and other goodies (or curiosities) for subscribers. In addition to the free T-shirt that comes upon subscribing, the series features titles from their library never before released on vinyl, including albums by Xiu Xiu, Dreamend, The Appleseed Cast’s Chris Crisci, TW Walsh, The Casket Girls, and Monster Movie—all featuring new album art. “I am elated that Graveface Records is putting out a mix of the series on vinyl so that it can be played in that format,” shared The Appleseed Cast’s Crisci in a press release. “Graveface started putting out vinyl for us so many years ago, and it is amazing to see how Ryan has been able to grow his company in so many interesting and wonderful ways. It’s a truly unique and artistic group of projects, and I’m honored to be associated with it!"
The first record in the series will be All Lost by the aforementioned Monster Movie, which features Slowdive’s Christian Savill and Nick Chaplin. “As I recall, All Lost was an OK album to make,” shared the band’s Sean Hewson of the 2006 release. “The one before—To the Moon—was a bit confused. All Lost was a bit less confused. A bit more—and this a relative term—confident. The songs are pretty good. Some are a bit big in terms of arrangements but this was a kind of post-OK Computer world where you’d stick weird instruments on and think it made you clever.”
