Black Star Foundation is a record label from Malmö in the south of Sweden. We've been doing the label since 1999, you can call us a punk label if you want to. At least we are working that way. We are all from a punk/hardcore background and the most important thing why we are doing this label is to combine music with Politics.
As you can read in our label name the black star is a symbol for Anarchism. We consider ourselves to be anarchists, not all artists on the label needs to be so, but we prefer them to at least have certain common goals why making music.
We are doing this because we really enjoy it, its a lot of fun to run this label, and we also know about the importance of more "underground"(punk, indie, hardcore, etc) labels to be around, since all of us also plays and have played in several bands. Our bands would have never released any song at all if it hasn't been for labels like mentioned above.
This is our way of giving something back to the music scene where we come from.
Thank you for checking us out!
