CHAPTER 1

A long time ago in a land far far away (Lisbon, Maine) a group of kids formed a group called ANTI. Their goal in life was simple, have as much fun as possible. That mentality is easily lost in todays world of grow up quick, get rich, and die quicker.

With the tunes of Punk Rock and Hardcore music as well as art to fuel their antics they remained strong clinging onto this ideal and would not give into a path paved in tuxedos and ties. 

Up until recent years this lifestyle was frowned upon. Swept under the rug of the tried and true "American Dream". Why try something new and different if another way already works?

The answer to that is simple. Why not. Many people forget we do not have to follow a life that has every step laid out and decided for you. ANTI's were not the first to realize this, or the last that

will. Their goal was not to compete with the others trying to do the same but to pull them together as one. Now the lifestyle they chose could grow beyond the small town it began in.

We need you. We need the creatives, the visionaries, the thinkers. This life is to short to drown it day by day in a dead end job. A strong community of us can make a difference and you can find what makes you happy. You can find your purpose. You're not alone.

Besides creating artwork, music, and events to spread the movement we also make apparel. Seeing someone wearing ANTI Clothing creates a direct connection with that person immediately. You know right away they are apart of the movement.
