Face
Down Records is the small NJ indie label with the big power pop heart.
Formed in 1996, FDR is probably best known for a string of wildly popular tribute
CDs including a tribute to the Replacements, Left of the Dial, a
tribute to The Who, Who's Not Forgotten, and the 80s movie tribute CD, High
School Reunion.
FDR comps have featured renowned artists
including Guided
By Voices, Frank
Black, Matthew
Sweet, Pat Dinizio, The Bigger
Lovers, Kristen
Hersh, and Lori
McKenna; however, Mick Chorba (label cofounder
and president) will tell you he is most proud of
the music FDR
has released by great NJ, NY and Philadelphia
power pop and indie rock bands such as his own
band the Dipsomaniacs,
and friends such as Bastards of Melody, Taggart, Milton
and the Devils Party, Blank
Pages, The
Swivel Chairs, and Mick's newest band - The
Successful Failures.
Look for FDR
to continue to expand in the years to come,
building on an already strong roster while
compiling more innovative tributes and compilations
CDs.
