Madball is a New York hardcore band that formed in the late 1980s, originally as a side project of Agnostic Front. The group began when Freddy Cricien, younger half-brother of Agnostic Front's singer Roger Miret, started performing vocals. After Agnostic Front broke up in 1992, Madball became its own main act with members beyond the original band. Known for their powerful sound and energetic live shows, Madball has released nine studio albums and four EPs.
