Time Bomb Recordings was a Laguna Beach, California based record label founded by Social Distortion manager Jim Guerinot in a 1994 joint-venture agreement with Arista Records. In the following 6 years, the artist roster grew to encompass a variety of musical genres (punk, indie, rock-a-billy); generally falling under the label "alternative rock." When the Arista agreement expired in 2000, Time Bomb signed with BMG Distribution. The label now exists mostly as an imprint for current releases from Social Distortion and Mike Ness along with the administration of the label's back catalog.Time Bomb is currently distributed by RED Distribution (whose parent, Sony Music Entertainment, absorbed BMG).
As of May 2010, the future of Time Bomb is uncertain as Social Distortion is now signed to Epitaph Records. In 2012, Time Bomb closed.
