Agnostic Front Music
- Discography:
Agnostic Front
Artist Overview
Agnostic Front formed in the early 1980s shortly after hardcore punk made its way up to the Rotten Apple from its birthing grounds in Washington, D.C. Led by guitarist Vinnie Stigma and vocalist Roger Miret, Agnostic Front played an extremely aggressive, hyper-macho brand of hardcore that quickly crossed over into metal territory. In part because of their view that hardcore is as much a lifestyle as a type of music, Agnostic Front are the longest-running of the original NYHC bands. They underwent various line-up changes and have dealt with the typical band strife that accompanies a 25-plus-year career, but have managed to thrive in the 2000s, well past the original movement's flame-out.
