Tarantulas Records

Punk rock record label

Tarantulas Records was a punk rock record label established in 2002. It was generally owned by the band The Explosion and run by their manager Rama Mayo (also of the label Big Wheel Recreation) as well as other members of bands involved in the label, and some releases were distributed by The Platform Group/Fontana. The most prominent and active bands amongst the Tarantulas (besides the Explosion) were The Distillers, The Bronx, The Static Age, and Darker My Love. The label/collective ceased to be in 2005/2006 due to disagreements with distributor The Platform Group and other tensions.
