Knifehandchop's music is released on vinyl and CD on a variety of labels, although Tigerbeat6 (Oakland, California / http://www.tigerbeat6.com/) and Irritant (London, England/ http://www.irritantrecords.com/) are the most recent, releasing 'Rockstopper' and 'Bling the Noize' respectively.

The newest Knifehandchop releases are the totally illegal DJ mix split CD with DJ Aneurysm ('Shotgun Wedding vol.2'), a 12” split single with Panacea from Germany ('Street Chic'), and a 12” single called 'Triple Threat' on Tigerbeat6.
