Origins

Founded in late 2014 by Robert Kampf, Another Century differs from the heavy metal focus of its parent company, Century Media, by developing new artists. The label's goal is to become a premiere alternative rock label. Kampf, who started Century Media Records back in 1988, said in a statement that it's his “undying love for rock” that led to the formation of the new label, and he hopes to "develop and break the best bands in rock."^[1]
