ANTI... was a greek synth punk band formed in early 80s by Kostas Aggelidis (vox, synthesizer) Dimitris Diplas (bass) Kostas Panagopoulos (synthesizer)

Born out of the ashes of PPF,a band formed in late 1981 and with only one concert in its vitae (Heliopolis,Athens in 1982), ANTI... presented their work for the first time in 1985, playing live in Pegasus (a well-known Athenian musical stage). The group, which composed of three members (two synthesizers and a bass) and a drum machine,performed an innovative mixture of punk and electronic music accompanied by corresponding socially, economically, politicallyand culturally wakeful lines. It was this idiosyncratic combination of a frantic sound performance and lyrics seething with an absolute rebellion ranging from the purely adolescent to the desperately mature plus the use of the Greek language rather than a foreign one, which reserved a special place for the group within the Greek underground music firmament.

Next, apart from a series of live performances, ANTI... released two self-produced cassettes, a split album [in 1990 along with a group named Kinonika Apovlita (standing for Social Waste in english) via the Wipe Out! label] and participated in some compilations [for instance, Fragmenta and Syntagi Anti-Thanatou (Anti-Death Prescription)].
