An Albatross

An Albatross is an American noise rock band known for their frenetic sound and vibrant energy, hailing from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The band was formed in 1999 and quickly gained attention for their unique blend of psychedelia, punk, and experimental music. Led by the charismatic vocalist Edward B. Gieda III, An Albatross's music is characterized by high-speed tempos, electronic chaos, and a theatrical live presentation that often transforms their performances into a sensory overload. They are particularly noted for their ability to create intricate sonic landscapes that manage to be both wildly chaotic and meticulously composed.

Over the years, An Albatross has released several impactful records that have solidified their place in the underground music scene. Their 2003 album, "We Are the Lazer Viking," is a rip-roaring journey through sound and mayhem that caught the attention of listeners with its distinct energy and concise burst of songs. Following that success, they put out "Blessphemy (of the Peace-Beast Feastgiver and the Bear-Warp Kumite)" in 2006, an album that continued to push the boundaries of their sound. "The An Albatross Family Album" in 2008 saw the band refining their style and exploring more structured compositions, while retaining the explosive elements that their fans had come to love. The 2020 EP "Return of the Lazer Viking" reminded the music world of their unrelenting spirit, serving both as a callback to their roots and a testament to their enduring influence in the realm of avant-garde rock. With these releases and their electrifying performances, An Albatross has carved out a niche that is unapologetically theirs, winning them a dedicated fanbase and critical acclaim within underground music circles.
