The Amity Affliction

The Amity Affliction is an Australian post-hardcore band formed in 2002. The band's current line-up is Joel Birch (lead vocals), Ahren Stringer (bass, clean vocals), Ryan Burt (drums), Troy Brady (guitar) and Imran Siddiqi (guitar). They have released two studio albums, Severed Ties released in 2008 and Youngbloods in 2010, which debuted at number 6 on the ARIA Charts, two EPs and a handful of demos. The Amity Affliction formed in Gympie, a South-East Queensland town. The band was named for a close friend of the band, who died in a car accident at the age of 17. 'Amity' referred to the friendship and 'Affliction' was to indicate the struggle which dealing with the death caused the band members. The death of the friend was the catalyst for the formation of the band, and prior to being named The Amity Affliction they were named Left Lane Ends. All together this band is just purely amazing, this may sound crazy to some.. But they helped save and changed my life. I'm in love with them. Expecially Ahren Stinger. I love them and Im proud to say that their Austalian owned. Rock on Amity!
