Recess Records is an independent record label founded in 1989 with the release of F.Y.P's Extra Credit, an 11 song 7-inch record. Label founder Todd Congelliere (frontman for F.Y.P and Toys That Kill) originally created the label as a vehicle to release F.Y.P's material. Congelliere promoted Extra Credit by running classified ads in Berkeley based Maximum Rocknroll fanzine and going to skateboard contests. He quickly sold his initial pressing of 500 copies.
