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!

Afflecking

Shutting down discussion on an important topic by shouting the word "racist" where it doesn't belong.

"The world has an increasing problem with Islamic extremism, but before we discuss it, it's important to distinguish between criticism of Islam as a set of ideas and bigotry against Muslims as a people."
"You can't say that! It's gross! It's racist!"
"Woah, what's that guy's problem? Nothing I just said had anything to do with race."
"Don't mind him, he's just Afflecking."

Afflictionado

Found in clubs, bars and gyms nationwide, the Afflictionado is characterized by fist pumping, general douchiness and a preference for mixed martial arts clothing brands. The afflictionado can be easily spotted by the reflective gold foil, gothic imagery and other toughguy-ish bullshit on their clothing.

That afflictionado's spray tan is the same color as a New Jersey school bus.
