4ad

4AD is a British independent record label that was started in 1979, and is still active today. 4AD was originally formed as Axis Records, but this was changed when it became apparent that the name Axis was already being used by another music company. Although they continue to be a major influence in the independent music scene - their roster currently includes Bon Iver, Deerhunter, TV on the Radio and Scott Walker - the label will forever be associated with what became known as the 4AD sound.

    4AD do a great disservice to themselves not allowing their music to stream here while lesser names get all the fans that completely miss their grand catalogue...Helps to retain their mystique I guess.
