Launch300 – our 25 Anniversary compilation is released today


To celebrate our 25th anniversary this year we decided to put together a very special compilation album – which coincidentally, was also our 300th release!

Simply titled 'LAUNCH300' this ltd edition, Bandcamp only compilation is released today and features exclusive and unreleased tracks by Centrum, Gnod, Goat, J. Zunz, Och, Shit & Shine, Smote and The Utopia Strong. The album comes packaged in beautiful original artwork by the infamous French 70's artist Philippe Caza, that has been exclusively licensed for this release.

You can buy this amazing album on ltd edition 'Silver Galaxy' vinyl via the link below – there will only ever be one pressing of this:

Operating from a 1998 launchpad in Bristol, Rocket's questing vision has made them pathfinders for a particular kind of psychic terrain. The label may have been founded on disparate and dissolute passions, yet its stubbornly uncompromising ethos has always been to push beyond boundaries into areas which even the true heads have thus far never ventured. To celebrate a quarter century on the outer realms of exploration, naturally these voyagers have some special ventures planned, LAUNCH300 is just one of these - a vital celebratory compilation collecting together eight of the current Rocket roster, all offering full-throttle salvos of metaphysical salvation.

LAUNCH300 measures out the widescreen horizons of Rocket Recordings as it embarks on the next quarter century - a label with its feet on the ground and its head mapping out a defiant course for the unknown. Get on board.
