The Amity Affliction, arguably Australia’s most successful heavy music exports, have announced their huge Australian Tour in September with the support of UNDERØATH, CROSSFAITH and PAGAN.
TAA claimed their fourth consecutive #1 ARIA chart debut with their sixth studio album, “Misery”, (on Roadrunner Records) when it dropped late last year. The album also remained at #1 on iTunes album chart for the entire first week of release. They join a handful of Australian artists to accomplish four consecutive #1 ARIA album debuts along with Silverchair and Powderfinger. Previous #1 albums for The Amity Affliction are “Chasing Ghosts” (2012), “Let The Ocean Take Me” (2014) and “This Could Be Heartbreak” (2016).
The Amity Affliction’s impressive resume of accolades include “This Could Be Heartbreak” (2016) as Gold certification, “Let The Ocean Take Me” (2014) and “Chasing Ghosts” (2012) with Platinum and Gold certifications respectively and “Seems Like Forever”, the #1 ARIA Gold certified documentary chronicling The Amity Affliction’s history up through their epic Let The Ocean Take Me World Tour.
“Misery” was supported with the release of cinematic videos for ‘Ivy’ (Doomsday), ‘Feels Like I’m Dying’ and ‘D.I.E’ together formed a short film written and co-directed by frontman, Joel Birch. The videos have a combined total view of over 2.2 million on YouTube alone.
