In the year 2003 it was time to release our first label compilation (ROR IV). A handful of active people wanted to start a project against war together. We're remembering that the U.S. started to bomb....aaaanyplace?! In fact, it was time to gather all leading bands on one record under one flag. Yeah! This national compilation was an international success and was a strong helping hand in promotion for all bands and of course for the label. All our heroes out of the Austrian (sub)cultural scene, friends and RISE OR RUST Records(Graz) had realized this compilation to present our statement for peace and to reach one common goal. ROR IV is sold out! So it was time to rise... All our releases own their individual story and most of them haven't reached gold status in any charts! For a small label in Austria, it is a hard job to promote, release and book shows but it must be love if you rise and fall with all those bands, music and shows through all these years. Usually (label)life is like "rise or rust" but we always want to support and help young bands and artists – as good as possible. Compared to all rockstar academies and cashmoney managers RiseOrRust is a D.I.Y non profit communtity – independent, honest and sincere since 2002. Nothing to add. Two years and five releases later it is time to set the record straight again to release RiseOrRust record number ten! SCHUBUMKEHR zwo.005 consists of twenty tracks and one bonus video: more than one hour of finest Austrian bands with their best songs. Most of them unreleased. Thank you for supporting these bands and RiseOrRust Records. Thanks to all partners: Sunsetstar Shop Graz, Buntmacherei Tattoos Graz, Slamzine, Radio Soundportal,King Of Style berlin, Teenage Riot Imperium...THX!
