Time Bomb Recordings is a Laguna Beach, California, based record label founded by artist manager Jim Guerinot in a 1994 joint-venture agreement with Arista Records. In the following six years, the artist roster grew to encompass a variety of musical genres (punk, indie, rock-a-billy); generally falling under the label "alternative rock". When the Arista agreement expired in 2000, Time Bomb signed with BMG Distribution. The label now exists mostly to administer the label's back catalog and is currently distributed by RED Distribution (whose parent, Sony Music Entertainment, absorbed BMG). On August 5, 2014, Time Bomb released Summer Nationals, an EP of three song covers by The Offspring on iTunes and Spotify.
