Agoraphobic Nosebleed
From Free net encyclopedia
Image:Anb logo red2.gif Agoraphobic Nosebleed (abbreviated as ANb) is a grindcore/cybergrind band formed in 1994 in Massachusetts, United States. Its line-up has changed often during the years, leaving the only permanent member Scott Hull (guitars, drum programming), who also plays guitar in Pig Destroyer. The current line-up includes vocalists Jay Randall, Richard Johnson and Carl A. Schultz in addition to Hull.
ANb's music is often described as cybergrind, i.e. grindcore utilizing drum machines and other electronic sounds. Through the use of drum machines, ANb has been able to play songs with over a thousand BPM. The lyrics usually revolve around subjects such as drugs and violence.
The band is renowned for the conciseness of its songs: Their album Altered States of America features 100 songs (incl. one hidden) in just over 20 minutes, many songs clocking in at 5 seconds or less.
ANb played their first live set at the 2003 New England Metal and Hardcore Festival. As their appearance was unscheduled, Pig Destroyer cut their set short so they could play two songs and an intro.
