Aram Arslanian, the alliteratively named guitarist behind Champion and Betrayed has announced the formation of his own label, React Records.

Aram explained:

A record label dedicated to positive hardcore and The Straight Edge. That's the bottom line but not the whole story: Hardcore has had a huge impact on my life and has introduced me to a worldwide community of like–minded people trying to make a positive change in the world. It's provided me with an outlet of expression, introduced me to life changing ideas like The Straight Edge and Vegetarianism, and has given me the opportunity to do and see some amazing things. I want others to have that same experience so.

He is kicking off the label with the signing of Vancouver, BC–based Get The Most. The band includes former members of Blue Monday and may appeal to fans of Kid Dynamite.
