About The Amity Affliction
The Amity Affliction is an Australian metalcore band from Townsville that formed in 2004. They've built a devoted fanbase by writing songs that sit at the intersection of crushing heaviness and genuine emotional vulnerability. Tracks like Seventy Times 7 and Misery showcase their trademark approach: abrasive instrumentation paired with lyrics about depression, loss, and survival. Their albums, particularly Let the Ocean Take Me and Chasing Ghosts, resonate with people who appreciate metal that doesn't shy away from introspection. Unlike plenty of bands in their orbit, they've maintained credibility by refusing to soften their sound for mainstream appeal, instead deepening their commitment to the metalcore template while exploring themes that matter to their audience.
Their shows are physically intense pit environments where people come to purge. Crowds are engaged but not ironic about it. Joel Birch's vocals hit with genuine conviction, and the band plays with the kind of tightness that justifies all those years of touring. Expect sweaty, cathartic energy rather than showmanship.
Known for Severed Ties, Misery, Chasing Ghosts, All Fucked Up, Pittsburgh

Live Music in Los Angeles
Los Angeles has always had room for metalcore, even when it wasn't the trendiest thing in rock. The city's venues have hosted everything from Warped Tour circuit bands to more experimental heavy music. That said, the LA metal crowd tends to lean toward something with teeth—bands that aren't afraid to get ugly with it. The Amity Affliction fit that bill.
