Collection: Amebix

rust punk band from England, UK, formed: 1978 and disbanded in 1987. They've reformed in 2008 and finally disbanded in 2012.

Influential English band considered to be the godfathers of crust punk. They recorded three albums and two EPs before splitting up in 1987, at which time The Baron went to live on the isle of Skye and worked as a sword-smith whilst the remainder of the band forged ahead with The Smartpils member Tim Crow as Zygote. This lasted until the early 1990s before fading into obscurity.
The band officially reformed in February 2008 without Spider and with new drummer Roy Mayorga (Nausea, Soulfly, Stone Sour). However in 2012, in a interview, Rob "The Baron" Miller made a statement announcing that Amebix is no more.

Owner of Amebix Records.
