Ebullition Records
In early 1990, Kent McClard, a former Maximumrocknroll columnist, teamed up with Sonia Skindrud, the writer of the zine Exedra, and Brent Stephens, a member of Downcast, to establish Ebullition Records. Skindrud contributed the name for the label, while Stephens created the logo. However, it is primarily McClard who manages and operates the label. The first planned release was an LP by Los Angeles hardcore band Inside Out. But Revelation Records approached them and requested a 7" release instead, and the band opted for the more established label. The record ended up being delayed for another year, by which time the band had already disbanded. Inside Out had plans to release a second record titled "Rage Against the Machine," a phrase coined by McClard and featured in some of his writings, including issue #9 of the zine No Answers.
