Origins

Founded in late 2014 by Robert Kampf, Another Century distinguishes itself from the heavy metal focus of its parent company, Century Media, by developing new artists with the goal of becoming 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]
