Antisect were an anarcho-punk band formed in 1982 in Daventry,
Northamptonshire, UK. Their debut album, In Darkness... There Is No Choice
was released in 1983 on Flux Of Pink Indians' Spiderleg Records label and
reached number 4 in the indie album charts. This was followed in 1985 by
the release of the 7" single Out From The Void, which reached number 2 in
the indie singles chart and along with Amebix's 1985 Arise! album, is
considered the starting point of the crust punk genre. The band were going
to release a follow up second full-length album entitled Welcome To The New
Dark Ages, but it was never finished or released by the band. However, some
tracks that were going to be on this album appear on the live bootleg Peace
Is Better Than A Place In History as live recordings. The band were among
the instigators of the squat venue scene in the mid to late 1980's before
finally splitting in 1987. Pete Lyons is now a
