Against Nature - Биография

In July 2004, returning after a 13 year absence, the Salvation's Answer-era line-up of Revelation re-formed as Against Nature and began writing and rehearsing new music, just for fun. The fun quickly turned into a serious artistic commitment, and the band recorded two discs' worth of music, "Appease" and "Panoply," at one studio session in May 2005. On a creative drive that has not subsided to this day, the band recorded their next three discs in quick succession: "Safe Dissonance," "Ghosting," and "Leer," all released in 2006. The Church Within Records also released a 7-inch vinyl single, "Pluperfect," in the same year.

2007 saw the release of the Manilla Road song "Crystal Logic" with Butch Balich (Argus, ex-Penance) on vocals on a Solemnity Records tribute double-CD, "The Riddle Masters"; the band's sixth full-length release "The Anxiety of Influence"; and their seventh full-length, "Unfolded." Two shorter releases, "Descend" and "Much in Little," were released in early 2008, and "Natural Blue" and "Accumulus" were released in September and October of 2008. "Action at a Distance" and "The First Rain" were release in March and April of 2009.

Against Nature has played the Templars of Doom II festival in Indianapolis, the Doom Shall Rise IV festival in Germany, the Stoner Hands of Doom VII festival in Mesa, AZ, the Doomed to Fall festival in San Antonio, TX in 2006, the Doom or Be Doomed festival (hosted and organized by John Brenner and Josh Hart) in Baltimore, MD in 2007, the Declaration of Doom festival in Baltimore, MD in 2008, and the 20 Buck Spin III festival in Washington, DC in November, 2008. Against Nature also toured in the U.K. in October, 2007 with Warning and The River, followed by a US tour with Toronto's Electric Magma, which culminated in the Stoner Hands of Doom VIII festival in Arizona in November, 2007.
