Anti-Creative Records

On his blog, RJ posted some pictures of the recently released Saw Wheel album. Check out the pictures below, and then head on over to our catalog to get a copy for yourself!

The 7″ announced previously is finally available! Saw Wheel (RJ — fromerly from One Reason — and friends) has been described as honest and sad but hopeful, country-influenced, punk rock with raspy vocals. Previously, the band has released records, CDs, and demos on No Idea Records, Plan-It-X Records, among others. This is their first “electric” record. This is a joint release from Anti-Creative Records and Covert Coercion Records!

view our catalog now to buy it (you can also buy it from Covert Coercion).

Anti-Creative is very excited to be releasing a new 7-inch from Saw Wheel. I’m sure many of you are familiar with Saw Wheel, who you might have heard on a split album with Ghost Mice years back, or numerous full lengths and other projects since then. With the help of our good friends Cover Coercion Records, Anti-Creative will be putting Saw Wheel on wax, and for the very first time  Saw Wheel will be blasting electric! We’ll have this out as soon as possible, and definitely in time for THE FEST 8. Saw Wheel is all set and ready to record, we’ll keep you up to date.

We regret to inform you that, for the first time ever, Anti-Creative has increased its prices. Formerly, all prices were postage paid. But in order to catch up with ever-increasing postage rates, ever increasing rates from our credit card processor, and ever increasing cost to simply produce records, all orders (online AND postal) now get charged $1.50 for the first item ordered, 50¢ for each additional item. For international rates, see the website. Previously online orders were subject to additional processing fees, but these have now been eliminated and you are only paying the shipping rates. Many apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

In better news, we totally redid our online catalog. Those ordering online will now have a much easier time. Instead of buying one item at a time and paying for each item individually, we now have a shopping cart system setup so you can buy multiple things and complete your order all at once. Very nice!

Nothing interesting here happening at A-CR headquarters. Just wanted to let you know we’re still alive and kicking, albeit very slowly.

Hope the economy isn’t crushing you…

It’s that time of year again!

The Fest 7 is happening Oct 31-Nov 2 in Gainesville, Florida!  http://www.thefestfl.com will tell you all about it. Roughly a bajillion bands will be going.

Here’s a schedule for The Fest that I made because I’m awesome.

Shortly after I made the previous post here in late August, Rio contacted to let me know that the CD is in fact finished. We’re now going over packaging options and such, and Rio is working on the artwork for the inserts and CD.

We’re getting close to actually seeing the long waited-for release!

Rumors are afoot on the Plan-It-X message board that Rio has finished up his CD (which means we should be seeing it released soon).

No word yet from Rio on whether or not this is true.

Hi everyone!

If you pre-ordered The imadethismistake 12″ you can expect to see it soon in your mailbox. If you haven’t ordered it, now’s a good time because they are in stock for you.

Thanks!
