BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Madball formed in the late '80s as an offshoot of seminal NYC hardcore band Agnostic Front. Longtime Agnostic Front singer Roger Miret began letting his younger half-brother Freddy Cricien share vocal duties on the band's tours, and by age 12 Cricien was fronting Madball, a side project that featured several other Agnostic Front members.  The group made their debut in 1989 with the EP Droppin' Many Suckers, supporting the release with a blitz of shows that earned them tremendous underground popularity. After several years of extensive regional touring the band released their debut LP, 1994's hard-hitting Set It Off.  They followed up in 1996 with the album Demonstrating My Style and continued to release records steadily throughout the '00s, touring extensively over the years and earning a reputation as a must-see live act. In 2014 the band released their eighth studio album Hardcore Lives, an aptly titled record that underscored their enduring commitment to New York's hardcore scene.
