Red Scare Industries
Red Scare Industries is a punk rock record label. The label was established in San Francisco by Toby Jeg, a former Fat Wreck Chords employee.
Jeg started the label in 2004 when his friend Brendan Kelly from The Lawrence Arms needed a new label to release the EP for his new band, The [Falcon |The Falcon]. Since its inception, Red Scare has released material for bands, including The Lillingtons, Cobra Skulls, The Copyrights, Sundowner, Teenage Bottlerocket, and more. In 2010 and 2011, albums released by Red Scare artists The Menzingers and The Sidekicks were named album of the year by punknews.org.
Additionally, the label has collaborated with non-Red Scare artists on projects, including "Red Oktoberfest," an annual weekend music festival in Chicago which has featured bands such as The Lawrence Arms, American Steel, and Off With Their Heads, and the Swingin' Utters tribute album, Untitled 21: A Juvenile Tribute to the Swingin' Utters, which most notably featured the Dropkick Murphys.
