Dill Records was punk rock/ska record label founded by Mike Park in 1989. The name is a pun related to Park's band Skankin' Pickle, after it was formed to release the band's music, which was initially the label's only artist. It was based out of Monte Sereno, California and released CDs/records until 1998. The first other band with a release on Dill Records was the Tantra Monsters (Dill 006) in 1994, and would also release Pezcore, the debut album of Less Than Jake in 1995. After the breakup of Skankin' Pickle, Park began the label Asian Man Records. In a 1998 interview, he told Read Junk that since he had funded Dill records with his own money, the artists he had signed came with him to the new label. Asian Man and Dill Records coexisted until 1998. Asian Man re-released many albums originally released by Dill Records, as all releases are now out of print and Dill Records is no longer in operation.
