	Spartanburg SC | GoUpstate.com | Spartanburg Herald-Journal (353 words) Slash Records is a record label in Los Angeles, originally specializing in local and punk rock bands. Until 1981, the label was distributed through Jem; when that company went bankrupt, Slash entered into a distribution deal with Warner Bros., a move that was among the first of the collaborations between independent and major labels in American punk music. From 1982 until 1996, releases from Slash Records were distributed in the United States by Warner Bros. Records, and elsewhere by Mercury Records. NationMaster - Encyclopedia: X (US band) (2320 words) Their landmark 1980 record Los Angeles resonated so loudly with the artisans of the city it is named after, that the band received an Official Certificate of Recognition from the City of Los Angeles in acknowledgment of their important contributions to Los Angeles music and culture. Their first two records were released on Slash Records and similar in style. X regrouped in the early 1990s to record, and though the band has not released an album of new material since 1993, it continues to perform live, with Zoom once again on guitar.
