Who Is This Label Likely to Fit?
A small Canadian DIY cassette label, active since 2013 and still releasing regularly as of 2026, that specializes in raw and depressive black metal in extremely limited hand-numbered runs; a plausible home for underground/lo-fi acts in that niche, though no demo policy or submission channel could be confirmed.
This is Metal-Labels' analysis based on available roster and activity data, not a claim made by the label itself.
Demo & Submission Information
No demo submission policy, submission channel, or geographic restriction is stated anywhere the label maintains publicly, so acceptance criteria are unconfirmed - artists interested in submitting should reach out directly via the contact email listed on the official site (extinctionistrecords@hotmail.com) to ask about current submission status before sending material.
