History
editHospital Productions was founded in 1998 when Fernow was 16 years old.[1] Many cassettes and CDrs were released in its early years, many of Fernow's own creations under the name Prurient, as well as various local acts. In 2006, a Hospital Productions store was established in the basement of the record store Jammyland. After Jammyland left, Hospital Productions moved into its space and operated until December 1, 2011.[2][3] Hospital Productions continues to operate as a label.[4] In 2019, Hospital Productions joined Amazon Music to release Halloween-themed albums by Prurient, Vatican Shadow, and Steve Moore exclusively as Amazon Originals available on the streaming-platform's Prime Music.[5]
