The Amity Affliction

The Amity Affliction have become one of the most well known heavy bands in Australia via a hard touring ethic, an original sound and a commitment to creating a fun and exciting atmosphere within the punk and hardcore scene. Their 2014 second album 'Let The Ocean Take Me' reached no.1 in their native Australia and certified gold. Since their inception in 2009, Silent Planet has never looked for handouts. Initially the band slowly gained traction playing local venues throughout California, subsequently expanding to DIY touring throughout the States. The band first gained prominence due to their vast array of intellectual influences, anchored by Russell’s masters degree in psychology and field experience as a mental health therapist. It is their remarkably intimate connection with their listeners that has become their trademark in the music scene.
