KARINA A SHER - RAGEBREED RECORDS - OWNER
Ragebreed Records is a dynamic and fiercely independent record label rooted in the UK’s vibrant underground music scene. Established under the umbrella of the broader Ragebreed brand, the label was created with a singular purpose: to amplify the voices of emerging and independent artists within metal, rock, and alternative genres on a global stage. The label was founded and is spearheaded by Karina Sher, an accomplished musician, entrepreneur, and advocate of grassroots music. Known for her work as the frontwoman of the melodic death metal band Mindlapse and ambient gothic project/film Lake Of Dreams, Karina’s deep connection to the underground scene fueled the inception of Ragebreed Records.
Her vision was to provide a platform that not only promotes cutting-edge heavy music but also nurtures a thriving, inclusive community of artists, fans, and industry professionals. Ragebreed Records prides itself on embracing a DIY ethos, offering bands the freedom to retain creative control while benefiting from comprehensive promotional and distribution support. The label’s diverse artist roster spans a broad spectrum of sub genres—ranging from melodic death metal, doom, gothic rock, to hard rock to metal—reflecting the eclectic and boundary-pushing spirit of the underground music world.
The label’s current roster includes notable acts such as Mindlapse, whose powerful blend of death, black, and progressive metal has garnered a loyal following as well as Lake Of Dreams which is a concept progressive, ambient gothic folk, and film project. In addition to these two bands, there are eight bands altogether in 2026, releasing albums and singles, Ragebreed Records are actively involved in curating free compilation deals through Ragebreed Magazine for their artists, and fostering cross-promotional opportunities both online and in physical spaces.
Through these efforts, the label continues to build bridges between artists and audiences, transcending geographical boundaries and uniting a global network of heavy music enthusiasts. Ragebreed Records operates alongside the wider Ragebreed brand, which includes Ragebreed Magazine, Ragebreed Radio, Ragebreed TV, Ragebreed Promotions, and merchandise services—all aimed at strengthening the underground community and offering multifaceted support to its members. With a foundation built on authenticity, empowerment, and community spirit, Ragebreed Records stands as a vital force in the independent music industry, tirelessly working to spotlight talent and sustain the raw, passionate energy of underground metal, rock, and alternative music.
Karina is currently managing all artists and some also consult and do PR with other brands.
