Anti-Creative Records was an independent record label in southern California. The label's releases consist primarily of folk-punk and punk bands from across the United States. The label was founded in November 2004.

The label has released material from such notable bands as Defiance, Ohio and Ghost Mice.

Business practices

Anti-Creative follows the DIY (do-it-yourself) punk ethic. The label likes to expand on this concept by saying they also consider themselves a "do-it-together" independent record label, stressing the importance of community and cooperation (as opposed to competition).

To help promote cooperation and collectivism, the label works closely with other labels with similar ideology as opposed to competing with them. In this way, they support small labels and encourage others to do so as well. The label is also intent on keeping music cheap and affordable ($5.00 USD or less for typical releases).
