Direct Hit Records was a record label specializing in punk rock. It was started in Dallas, Texas and later moved to San Francisco.
Direct Hit was a spin-off of a small independent record store of the same name in Dallas. Kelly Keys, owner of Direct Hit, opened the store in 1989. Local area band members flowed in and out of the store, dropping off cassette tapes. The first release was a 7" vinyl record from Lithium X-Mas. 35 releases in total were produced until 2000, when the label closed its doors after a move to San Francisco. This small label spawned Brutal Juice, Bedhead, ASD and The Grown-Ups and a few out of state bands Michael W. Dean, Malachai and Exit Human.
