In Honor of Matador's Gerard Cosloy, A Fuck Victory Records Playlist

Tony Brummel, the iTunes/Ne-Yo-despising Victory Records proprietor and bete noir of DIY hardcore since time immemorial, appears to have crossed yet another line. Gerard Cosloy, whose Austin home burned to the ground completely in the early hours of Tuesday morning, took the Matablog today to share an email from someone claiming to be Brummel with the subject line "Good morning..." and, in the body of the message, a reproduction of a satirical Victory logo Cosloy once dreamed up, with the word KARMA appended above it. Brummel may be settling a score: like the vast majority of the independent music community, Cosloy's had his conflicts with Brummel in the past. "What he expressed to me today, however, is another story," writes Cosloy. "I think he deserves to have it widely circulated." No problem. In Cosloy's honor, we figured we'd revisit some of our favorite Tony Victory takedowns from over the years. (There are, you will not be surprised to hear, many.)
