REBELLION UK feat. MADBALL and more!
Madball emerged in 1988 as a side project of N.Y.C. hardcore pioneers Agnostic Front, blending hardcore punk's raw aggression with the weight of metal to help define the beatdown sound. Frontman Freddy Cricien is the younger brother of AF vocalist Roger Miret, and when Agnostic Front disbanded in 1992, Madball became the members' primary focus. Following their debut EP in 1989, the band quickly established themselves at the forefront of the New York hardcore scene, releasing landmark albums such as Set It Off (1994), Demonstrating My Style (1996), Look My Way (1998), Hold It Down (2000), Infiltrate the System (2007), Hardcore Lives (2014), and For the Cause (2018).
After early lineup changes, Madball solidified their reputation through relentless touring and straight-ahead hardcore releases, eventually signing with Roadrunner Records. A brief breakup in 2001 led to a reformation in 2002, followed by continued touring and releases including Legacy, Empire, and Infiltrate the System. Later years saw further lineup shifts and label changes, with the band returning strongly in 2014 and again in 2018 with For the Cause, co-produced by Tim Armstrong and featuring Ice-T. Madball have remained an active live force into the 2020s, collaborating with Pain of Truth on 2023's “You & Me” and continuing their legacy as one of hardcore's most enduring bands.
