About
Die Laughing was an independent record label active during the early-to-mid 1990s, operating primarily within the underground experimental and industrial music scene. The label distinguished itself through its commitment to cassette-based releases, a format choice reflecting both the DIY ethos and accessibility priorities of the era's underground music community. Between 1992 and 1995, Die Laughing released at least three notable projects, including "Poems Of Your Life....." (1992), "Love Amongst The Ruins" (1993), and the "Nemesis EP" (1995), all issued on cassette format. These releases suggest the label's focus on introspective, avant-garde, and experimental work that aligned with the broader industrial and post-industrial underground movements of the period. While limited documentation survives regarding the label's specific founding members or geographic base, Die Laughing's catalog represents an important artifact of 1990s independent music distribution, exemplifying the era when cassettes remained a vital medium for experimental artists operating outside mainstream commercial channels.
