Smorgasbord Records

The US hardcore label Smorgasbord Records started out as Smorgasbord fanzine in 1986 by a hardcore fan named Chris Daily from Stamford Connecticut. After a few issues of Skate Confusion zine, Chris changed the name to Smorgasbord Zine and then he took the magazine to the next level in 1988 with the release of [m190704]. This release marked the end of the magazine and the beginning of the record label. By 1990, the label had relocated to York, Pennsylvania. By 1994, the label had relocated to Hershey, Pennsylvania and then shortly after that to Carmel, New York. Chris put out records for a total of eight years, and then in 1996 he decided that he no longer had the time to continue. Jeff Terranova from [a371751] and Chris worked out a deal, and in early 1996 Jeff was the new owner of the label. By 2001, Jeff had relocated the label from Carmel, New York to Milford, Connecticut. Jeff continues to run the label as a one man DIY effort and puts out newer unheard of hardcore, punk, and rock acts that he has faith in.
