Anarchy Logos Suspenders (1 Inch Wide)
Many anarcho-punk bands subscribe to a do-it-yourself ethic. A popular anarcho-punk slogan is "DIY not EMI," a conscious rejection of a major record company.
Many anarcho-punk bands were showcased on the Bullshit Detector series of LPs released by Crass Records and Resistance Productions between 1980 and 1994. Some anarcho-punk performers were part of the cassette culture.
In this way, an attempt was made to bypass the traditional recording and distribution routes, with recordings often being made available in exchange for a blank tape and a self-addressed envelope.
The anarcho-punk movement had its own network of fanzines or punk zines which disseminated news, ideas and artwork from the scene.
These were DIY productions, tending to be produced in runs of hundreds at most, although there were exceptions such as Toxic Grafity.
The zines were printed on photocopiers or duplicator machines, and distributed by hand at punk concerts and through the mail.
