“ANTI-ALL WAS STARTED IN EARLY 2010 AS A SOLO MUSIC PROJECT BY THE BASSIST AND VOCALIST FROM THE SOUTH-AFRICAN STREET-PUNK BAND “ANARKOTIX” (THAT'S ME)AFTER THE BAND BROKE UP. AFTER REALIZING THAT MANY OF THE THINGS I STOOD FOR WERE TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT I BELIEVED WHEN FIRST GETTING INTO PUNK-ROCK IT MADE SENSE TO CREATE SOMETHING NEW TO REFLECT THESE NEW IDEAS. IT ALSO MADE SENSE TO CHANGE THE MUSIC STYLE AS I BEGAN MAKING THE TRANSFORMATION FROM STREET-PUNK TO THE MORE INTELLECTUALLY CHARGED CRUST PUNK SUBGENRE.
RECENTLY, ANTI-ALL HAS EVOLVED INTO "ANTI-ALL: THE ANONYMOUS ANOMALY", DONNING A STRIKING WHITE MASK. THIS IS MAINLY TO SYMBOLIZE THAT THE MESSAGE ISN'T INTENDED TO BY PERSONALLY OFFENSIVE, BUT RATHER, IDEOLOGICALLY CHALLENGING. "ANTI-ALL" COULD BE ANYONE, AND REPRESENTS VARIOUS PEOPLE, AS OPPOSED TO BEING ONE PARTICULAR INDIVIDUAL.
THE LYRICS FOCUS ON ANARCHISM, VEGANISM, ENVIRONMENTALISM, THE A.L.F (DIRECT ACTION), FEMINISM, AUTONOMY, ANTI-CLASSISM, ANTI-RACISM, ANTI-CAPITALISM, AND ANTI-PUNK ELITISM. BECAUSE THE LYRICS TEND TO BE IDEOLOGICALLY DEFIANT AGAINST MANY SOCIALLY ACCEPTED IDEAS, MANY PEOPLE STARTED SAYING THAT I MIGHT AS WELL BE ANTI-EVERYTHING, WHICH IS WHERE THE NAME “ANTI-ALL” COMES FROM.
THE LYRICS ARE OFFENSIVE IN SOME PARTS BUT THEY WERE INTENDED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY, AND NOT PERSONALLY. THERE IS AN ELEMENT OF HUMOR IN CERTAIN SONGS LIKE “KILL JACOB ZUMA” (A SONG ABOUT ASSASSINATING THE PRESIDENT), BUT AGAIN, IF LISTENED TO WITH THE RIGHT ATTITUDE IT WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH IN SOME PLACES AND THINK IN OTHERS.
CRUST-FOLK FROM SOUTH AFRICA!”
