Madball

Madball is an American New York hardcore band. Originated in the late 1980s as a side project of Agnostic Front, the band developed after Agnostic Front's vocalist Roger Miret would let his younger half-brother Freddy Cricien take the microphone and perform lead vocals during Agnostic Front shows. Following Agnostic Front's 1992 disbandment, Madball became the members' main project and many became a part of the band who were never in Agnostic Front.

They initially gained prominence with their 1994 debut album Set It Off. Following three more album releases the group briefly disbanded in 2001 but quickly returned the following year in 2002. In total they have released nine studio albums and four EPs. They are often mentioned as an influential band in the New York hardcore scene and the overall hardcore genre.
