Black Water Records is a punk and metal record shop, label and distro in Portland, Oregon. Located on NE Sandy Boulevard, it shares the Black Water building with Black Water Bar, Restaurant and Venue.
The shop focuses on punk, hardcore, metal and related underground music, with a strong emphasis on physical releases. Its stock includes vinyl, CDs, tapes and other record-store items connected to punk, metal and underground music culture.
Black Water Records also operates as a label and mail-order distro, releasing and distributing records by punk, hardcore, post-punk and underground bands. This gives the shop a wider role than a standard record store, linking the physical Portland shop to an active label and international distro catalogue.
The connection to Black Water Bar makes the NE Sandy Boulevard address a combined space for records, vegan food, drinks and live music. The record shop keeps its own identity, while still forming part of the wider Black Water operation.
