The APF Brigade were an anarcho-punk duo (Andy Export and Jon Hindle) from Peterborough, Cambridgeshire in England during the early 1980s. Unfortunately they never released any vinyl, apart from the song "Anarchist Attack" on the Crass released Bullshit Detector Volume 1 compilation LP (1980). However, they were stalwarts of the cassette culture scene, putting out a number of tapes promoting their anarchist message. In fact every copy of their first release, Live Brigade, was individually recorded live in Hindle's garage, thus each was a unique artifact, arguably in the tradition of much Mail Art.
