Suburban Noize Records, also known as "Subnoize", is an independent record label based in Burbank, California that specializes in punk rock and hip hop music. The label was founded in 1997 by the Kottonmouth Kings' vocalist Daddy X and later ran by Kevin Zinger. [1]

History

On November 1, 2019, it was announced that Whitney Peyton had signed to Suburban Noize. [2]
