Amebix is an English crust punk/heavy metal band. Formed as "The Band with No Name," Amebix's original run was from 1978 to 1987, during which time they released three EPs and two full-length LPs. The group reunited in 2008 and disbanded again in 2012. One of the first bands to blend anarcho-punk and heavy metal music, Amebix is often cited as one of the key bands that helped to create the crust punk style. Such notable bands as Sepultura, Neurosis and Deviated Instinct have paid homage to the band. Recorded on January 29, 2009 at The Bowery Ballroom in New York, The Power Remains the Same concert features the ‘Sonic Mass' line up of Stig, The Baron and Roy Mayorga (Stone Sour) on drums and percussion. The accompanying DVD was recorded on May 27, 2009 at Triple Rock in Minneapolis.
