Attack Attack! is an American metalcore band known for combining elements of electronic music with heavy metal, an eclectic mix that has branded them as key players in the 'crabcore' subgenre, a term partially derived from their unique stage performances and crab-like stances. The group originated from Westerville, Ohio, and initially burst onto the scene with their self-titled debut album in 2008, stirring the post-hardcore pot with their unorthodox style and vivid energy.
Throughout their career, Attack Attack! has undergone several lineup changes and brief hiatuses, but their sound has consistently pushed the boundaries of metalcore and electronicore. In their most recent releases, such as "Dark Waves," "Long Time, No Sea," and the effervescently titled "Brachyura Bombshell," the band continues to showcase their penchant for heavy breakdowns laced with throbbing synths and catchy, melodic choruses. They've carved a distinct niche within the heavy music landscape, attracting a devoted fan base that celebrates their experimentation and resilience. The band's influence persists in their willingness to evolve and remains a hallmark in the oft-divisive scene from which they emerged.
