Ruptured Ambitions Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ruptured Ambitions Records first began life as a 'do-it-yourself' promotional outfit for punk, and punk-related independent musical ensembles based in the Plymouth and West Devon areas of the UK.
This soon spread, encompassing musical groups, desktop publishing and other DIY, anarchistic and fund-raising bodies throughout the country and, latterly, many parts of the world. Ruptured Ambitions' projects have included distribution, recorded releases, film, publishing and event organisation. Since its formation in 1989, Ruptured Ambitions continues in various forms as of 2007.
You've Heard It All Before (the Crass cover versions album and the first of over 30 R.A. releases to date) is currently out-of-press on the original vinyl. 2,000 copies were sold in aid of Rape Crisis centres in the UK. Plans are in progress for a CD reissue.
Bands and artistes who have contributed work on Ruptured Ambitions releases include Oi Polloi, Subhumans, Bus Station Loonies, Riot/Clone, Wat Tyler, English Dogs, The Varukers, Fleas and Lice, Sensa Yuma, Police Bastard, The Dangerfields, Eastfield, Cowboy Killers, Zygote, UK Subs, Terminus, Harum Scarum, Bad Influence, Nick Toczek, The Orphans, Conflict, Family Bastardo, The Chineapple Punx, Power of Idea, Pan's Grannies, Disorder, The Bloodclots and Naked Aggression.
