An independent record label (or indie label) is a record label that operates without the funding or distribution of major record labels; they are a type of small- to medium-sized enterprise, or SME. The labels and artists are often represented by trade associations in their country or region, which in turn are represented by the international trade body, the Worldwide Independent Network (WIN).

The new line-up recorded two further 7 track 7" records, ''The Feminist Third'' and ''The June Bride'', before having all four records compiled into a single CD release entitled ''The Completist's Library'' by the record label Wrath Records, Wra ...
