From the distant past comes a rumble you may recognize that fills you with nostalgia, energy and hope. It goes Kerplunk! And, even when things are gettin' kinda HECTIC, Alternative is Here to Stay! So Don't Back Down! To celebrate our 15th year in business, Lookout is planning a celebratory weekend of events July 25, 26 & 27.

From 1988 to 2003, Lookout! Records has been one of the great American indie labels. From early seven inches, documenting the East Bay's arty, subversive 80's punk scene, to great studio albums from longtime heros MTX, future arena gods Green Day, from fun records from Kinks-on-speed kings Hi Fives, to the Bay Area's TRL stormtroopers The Donnas, to the legendary record every punk rocker on earth owns, Operation Ivy's "Energy," which has sold over 600,000 copies! Lookout! has been honored to work with some of the greatest punk bands ever, too many to name...

oh, ok, here's a VERY PARTIAL list - The Cost, The Pattern, The Smugglers, Black Cat Music, The Phantom Surfers, Screeching Weasel, The Oranges Band, Samiam, Rancid, Nuisance, Ted Leo, Rice, (Young) Pioneers, Cleveland Bound Death, Pinhead Gunpowder, Pansy Division, The Washdown, The Crumbs, Avail, The Enemies, One Time Angels, Ann Beretta, Crimpshrine, Avengers, Bratmobile, The Eyeliners, Sweet Baby, American Steel, The Go-Nuts... more more more - Lookout! is, has been and always will be GO!
