What is Maritime Fist Glee Club?

Updated

Maritime Fist Glee Club (MFGC) was a record label, and it is no longer operating. The site at maritimefist.com now displays a single notice stating "MFGC IS DEAD." and explaining that the label ceased operations "quite some time ago." So if you arrived looking for current releases, a roster, or a store, there is nothing active to find there.

What the site tells you

The page is a shutdown notice rather than a label homepage. Its content is limited to three points:

  • The label has ceased operations.
  • The closure happened well before the notice was posted.
  • One affiliated act, Anvil Salute, is pointed to as still existing "sort of," with links out to that act's own website and Bandcamp page.

There are no catalog listings, contact details for the label, or ordering information on the page.

What this means depending on what you wanted

If you were looking for What to do instead
MFGC releases or merch The label is closed; the site offers no store or catalog. Look for the releases through secondhand listings or the artists' own pages.
Anvil Salute music Follow the pointers on the notice to the act's website or Bandcamp page, which the notice describes as still (loosely) active.
Contacting the label No contact route is provided; the notice is the final word.
Confirming the label's status The notice itself is the confirmation: operations have ended.

A note on the name

"Glee Club" in the label's name is a stylistic choice, not a description of a choir or performance group. Treat maritimefist.com as the archived notice of a defunct record label, and direct any interest in its artists to those artists' own channels.
