History
History
The label was started in 2015 by Jake Sulzer, shortly after his college graduation. After stumbling across a demo by the band Bay Faction, Sulzer offered them a record contract. Gaining most traction from releasing records of band's such as Origami Angel, Oso Oso, Skatune Network, Prince Daddy & The Hyena, & Mom Jeans, the label funded the releases of many lesser-known bands in the scene, like Pictures of Vernon. Counter Intuitive Records opened a storefront in Brookline, Massachusetts on February 15, 2025, where they have records, apparel, and merchandise available for purchase, as well as a section dedicated to retro video games.
