The Amenta

The Amenta are an Industrial Death Metal band from Australia. The Amenta is the hidden earth. Formed in a faltering new millenium - embodying a new age in extremism. A soundtrack to a modern age. The Amenta - an unrelenting fusion of distortion, experimentalism and ambience. A dark and disfigured installation of emotion. Confronting music for discerning minds. Mictlan - An elegy for the dead millenium. Four tracks mourning intellectual decay. Metaphors for dogma. Industrial noisescapes and brutal distortion. Unsettling ambience.

Formerly called Jodi Moore as a tribute to an acquaintance who didn't want the honour of seeing her name in the street press, The Stabs acquired their new name not long after starting to play irregular gigs at small Melbourne venues around 2003. They have the honour of clearing the 'Airport Lounge' at Monash Uni faster than any other lunchtime act, with only three diehards ending up braving the wall of noise for the whole set.

Paul Di'Anno

Paul Di'Anno began his professional musical career singing with <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Iron+Maiden" class="bbcode_artist">Iron Maiden</a> in 1978. His style has been described as more punk-influenced than Iron Maiden's following vocalist Bruce Dickinson. Di'Anno left the band after two albums, the reasons for so vary between sources; either leaving by his own will or being sacked due to excessive drug and drinking habits with a conflicting personality . Despite his short tenure in the band, Paul Di'Anno is seen as a major factor in the early development of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement.
