[edit] History
Burnt Toast Vinyl was founded by a Drexel University student who had initially been involved with concert promotion at the school.[1] The label has released full albums from several prominent Philadelphia indie musicians, as well as releasing or re-releasing material on vinyl from artists on the Tooth & Nail roster. Many of the label's CD releases feature elaborate cardboard packaging.
Several of Burnt Toast's post rock and experimental groups attracted notice from magazines such as Dusted[2] and Prefix.[3] Among the label's best-known releases are those by Denison Witmer,[4][5][6] Unwed Sailor,[7][8][9][10] and Saxon Shore.[11][12]
