Celebrating 20 years of Topshelf→

Revealing the second 20th Anniversary title

Last month we announced our 20th Anniversary Bundle, a 10-LP collection featuring long unavailable and out-of-print releases, starting with Pretend's Tapestry'd Life.

Today we're revealing the next title in the 10-LP bundle: Duck. Little Brother, Duck!'s second and final album, Don't Take Our Filth Away.

Don’t Take Our Filth Away, explores numerous strains of underground rock fauna throughout its 45-minute runtime. Over the course of ten tracks, the Portland, Oregon four-piece tease apart fragments of math rock, emo, noise rock, and screamo, recombining them into a knotted, vibrant evolution from their sprawling 15-song debut Survival Is Not a Workout. Although the band’s final album-length statement, Don’t Take Our Filth Away’s densely arranged, erratic compositions provide ample paths to lose oneself, and keep returning for years to come.

20 of the 300 available bundles, selected at random, will include a free 20th anniversary test pressing.

Throughout the rest of the year, we'll reveal a new title every few weeks, with the next drop on July 23, 2026.

Pre-order the bundle now. The bundle will ship in two parts, with the first half shipping in early December. Only shipping to US addresses. Only available on topshelfrecords.com.

Thank you for sharing and listening to the music we release. All of us here at this little label couldn’t do it without you!
