Much love to our Family in Anti-Everything! Thanks for letting us be part of your amazing journey!

This week marks the 10-year anniversary of our first album - 'The International Conspiracy to Push You Down' (TICTPYD), which was released on 16th November 2009.

Exactly two years later, we released our second full-length record - 'Children of a Globalised World' (COAGW) on the 16th of November 2011.
On 16th of November 2017, we released our 7" hardcore EP - 'Harbour Ties'.
In between we have also had several of the releases - EPs, videos, and other content, often also released on 16th November.
For example, last year on 16th November 2018, we released our latest EP 'Congestión'.

The significance of this day is that it is in honour of the passing of our brother and original bassist Adam Andrew Arneud.

Our first album (TICTPYD, 2009) was a culmination of several years of work. It began as a five song demo recorded at Random Design Studios in 2005 and produced by our brother Maarten Manmohan. In fact, we were the first official clients when Random Design Studios opened its doors, and it's been incredible to watch how RDS has become a nexus for the production of alternative music in the Caribbean.

Over the next few years we would record and re-record several more songs eventually culminating in our 13-track debut. Some of these songs, which we still play today were written almost 20 years ago. The immense effort that everyone put into that record, doing everything on a strictly DIY basis - from the production and artwork to the distribution and release - was what formed our DIY ethics, which have stuck with us throughout the years, guiding everything we do.

So what is next for us? Well, we have a bunch of different projects in different stages of pre-production. The refrain of one song that will be on our next full-length album ('All Roads Lead to This') summarise how we feel about all the time that has passed, and all the time that is yet to come in our journey.

"And yes our teeth are getting longer, but that only means that we bite harder; Even when your first is clenched in anger, you can still choose to raise a middle finger at the world".

We have been able to produce all this content and keep on going, because of our amazing network and extended-family of collaborators from all across the world.

So from all of us in the AE camp, we thank you all for being part of our story and our extended family. Below is a download link to our entire discography in case you don't have it. We promise that 10 years from now, we will make a similar announcement and offer up an even larger discography for free.

Peace, Love, and Solidarity,

AE Crew
