About ANTI
In order to properly document old school punk / Hardcore in L.A., you definitely could not leave out ANTI. ANTI, along with Crucifix and maybe a couple others, where amongst the first wave of politically oriented “Peace” punk bands that started popping-up in the U.S. ANTI was also one of the first punk bands in L.A. to start their own label dubbed, New Underground. Run by members Gary Kail and Danny Dean Phillips, the label was created with the intention of releasing vinyl by many bands other than their own. Besides this great endeavor, Gary and Danny were also involved as full-time members of another great L.A. punk bands of that era, “Mood of Defiance”. In addition , Danny wrote “The South Bay Report” and a variety of interviews for Flipside. Gary on the other hand, was involved with various industrial noise projects, most notably, Zurich 1916. When you take all of this into perspective, it’s really quite impressive how much they were able to contribute to a then exploding scene. So there ya have it, the straight shit on how truly Great ANTI was. - GTA’s Sugar Daddy and Devoted Schmuck |
