Holy Roar Records was an independent record label run by Alex Fitzpatrick. The label began in January 2006 and put out its first release, the Phoenix Bodies album, Raise the Bullshit Flag in June 2006.[1] Fitzpatrick originally joked that the name was derived from a vision he had while using the hallucinogen LSD.[2] According to Fitzpatrick, the name “Holy Roar” was derived from a Torche song with the same title.[3]
