Artist description Just because you are in a heavy band in the new millenium doesn't Mean that you have to look like a fucking goon!!!Affliction says fuck you! to all of you punk asses that are in a band to look cool to your lame ass friends and to piss off you parents. We are about pure, raw, unbridled metal aural assault. Just heavy fuckin metal, drinking,tattoos, and body piercings. No sir there will no be any huge over-exaggerated bell-bottom pants and pussy net, see-thru shirts, eye make-up and geeks with turn-tables. Heavy guitar, a drummer who can spit out blast-beats, pounding slapped bass, and screaming and singing combined to form Affliction....raw, be-otch! RAW! any problems?

Artist History We are currently working on our 3rd cd. Affliction has recently went from a 2 singer band to a 4 piece metal act. Our music is fast, angry and also melodic in intervals. We have been working hard for years to construct a tight solid base and played in just about any atmosphere you can imagine to find a metal band. Near or far from home we haved proved to stir up a vicious pit to a singing or screaming crowd. Speed metal, death metal, numetal, are all wound up into an aural assault.
