- Your Choice Records was a German independent record label founded in 1988 by producer Tobby Holzinger. The label specialized in independent punk music, including live releases of German and other international acts. Holzinger provided a share of the record sale profit to various animal rights organisations. The label maintained a strict DIY ethic, producing all of its albums by itself and selling them at discount prices without the help of major distributors. Your Choice Records existed in the early days of hardcore, inspired by the spirit of labels like Dischord Records, Alternative Tentacles, SST Records and Touch and Go Records. Early releases by Your Choice were relatively well-produced compared to other punk live recordings of the time.
- Your Choice Records ist ein Independent-Label aus Deutschland. Es wurde 1988 von Tobby Holzinger nach dem Do-it-yourself-Prinzip gegründet und hat sich auf deutsche und internationale Independent-, Hardcore- und Punk-Live-Veröffentlichungen spezialisiert. Inspiriert wurde Your Choice Records von der Arbeit anderer Independent-Labels wie Dischord Records, Alternative Tentacles, SST Records und Touch and Go Records. Der Grundgedanke von Your Choice Records war, verschiedene internationale Bands aus der Punk/HC-Szene in einer Serie hochqualitativer Liveplatten mit einem Konzeptcover mit Wiedererkennungswert und im Rahmen einer Gegenkultur zu vereinen. Außerdem sollte der Verkauf der Veröffentlichungen die "Animal Rights"-Szene unterstützen. So entstand in den späten 1980er und frühen 1990er Jahren eine umfangreiche Dokumentation einer wegweisenden Entwicklung in der Musikgeschichte, die spätestens mit dem in 1991 veröffentlichten Song Smells Like Teen Spirit und dem Album Nevermind ihren Wendepunkt erlebte. Aus der eigentlichen Idee, die Serie auf 12 Veröffentlichungen und eine abschließende Kompilation (mit unveröffentlichtem Material der 12 Bands) zu beschränken, wurde ein Gesamtkonzept von 50 Veröffentlichungen, unterteilt in drei Hauptteile, das bis heute unvollständig geblieben ist. Der größte Teil der Your Choice-Veröffentlichungen ist nicht mehr erhältlich und wird scheinbar auch nicht wieder neu aufgelegt. Es ist außerdem unklar, ob es weitere Veröffentlichungen von Your Choice Records geben wird.

- Patrick Kennedy, on the '''Melvins''' and the '''Your Choice Live Series'''
- Andy Kellman on '''Jawbox''' and the '''Your Choice Live Series'''
- Exclaim!
- Greg Prato, on '''Shudder to Think''' and the '''Your Choice Live Series'''
- Shudder to Think's live show has always been built on excitement and musical friction, and Your Choice Live Series captures the band at its tightest. This would prove to be original drummer Mike Russell's last recording with the band before leaving to become a teacher, but it doesn't stop the record from taking flight. Craig Wedren's voice is as clear and operatic as it is on their studio records.
- The Melvins' installment in the Your Choice Live series is decidedly on the sludgy side. Fans of the band's earlier output will rejoice at the track listing, which comprises tracks from Gluey Porch Treatments, Ozma, and Bullhead. Furthermore, the recording quality is excellent; perhaps not Fillmore East excellent, but for a punk club setting, this is primo.
- Their shows were clinics in intensity and band chemistry. They had one of the finest rhythm sections of their time in bassist Kim Coletta and drummer Zach Barochas (affectionately credited as "Lovey" in the sleeve -- don't be fooled), and guitarists J. Robbins and Bill Barbot always created an unholy racket in the vein of Gang of Four, Big Black, and Naked Raygun. One might pity those who never saw this mighty band in action, but this series offers a fine substitute.
- They claim it's an attack on the free world, but they're censoring everyone that's saying something that even talks about the bombings in a different way. It's ironic that it's an attack on the 'free world' and now everyone that tries to explain it can't be heard. I would say it was an attack on capitalism, it was an attack on the institutions that people in Afghanistan or people in the Middle East get fucked over by on a daily basis. It was definitely an attack on the power structure of American capitalism. I'm not defending what happened in any way. My gut reaction is that it is horrible and it was tragic to see that it had to happen. But what we have to do is take a step back and analyse why it happened. It seems like America is totally forbidding itself to understand the structures behind a thing like this.
