Apathy is an American thrash metal band from Clifton, NJ that was formed in 2000 and in the summer of 2009 they released there highly anticipated album A Decade Of Violence, Produced and recorded by Chris Gibson (Glassjaw, CIV, Agnostic Front) at Upstart Studio Hoboken, NJ. The bands lyrics and album art, which cover such topics as warfare, violent behavior, and signs of the apocalypse is well complemented by the bands highly fueled   music and melodic chaos. The timing of this album couldn't come at a better time as the resurrection of Thrash metal is on the rise and with new bands such as Warbringer and Skeletonwitch leading the charge. APATHY needs to be added to that list of serious         contenders of the new thrash metal movement. (NWOTM)

 “A Decade of Violence is and album that follows the blueprint of traditional thrash metal and delivers with style and class. It is an instant    anthem and perhaps a thrash  classic within time” - Helter (Thrashzone)

 The bands reputation along the NJ metal underground scene has grown over the past couple of years. Performing where ever and when ever shows were offered to them by promoters, club owners, or other bands. Apathy generated buzz in the Jersey metal scene when they did a   Sunday Metal Matinee at Fastlanes-Asbury Park, NJ with Fuse TV host Mistress Juliya and Roadrunner Recording artist Mutiny Within, formerly known as Mutiny. 2008 catapulted the bands popularity, with the release of there self titled demo “APATHY” and opening up for Relapse       Recording artist SUFFOCATION at the Starland Ballroom Sayreville, NJ the same night. Apathy stunned hundreds of new listeners with there intense live performance and musicianship. Apathy became the most talked about artist of that show.

 “...Classic metal riffs ala Megadeth, Metallica, Testament, Flotsam and Jetsam, etc. These songs brought me back to an old Jersey metal sound that seems to have been lost with all of this nu-metal crap! I have to be honest; I’m digging the new Apathy stuff .                               - Tim Louie (North Jersey Notes)

 As the band waged on as road warriors, Never Say Die! Was the bands creed which really meant, “Never Turn down a show” The band later  appeared on a local cable TV Show in Port Jervis, NY “Tuesday Night Rocks” which aired to 3,000 homes and was broadcasted live via web stream and viewers from all over the world could watch and call in. NY/NJ Entertainment guide East Coast Rocker said that “Apathy was a breath of fresh air to metal heads”. Seton Hall college radio station WSOU 89.5 FM aired tracks from the demo “APATHY” and in June of 2009 front man Peter Wells along with a few other bands would do an interview on “Street Patrol” which features unsigned bands, took calls from listeners and held some giveaways of Apathy merchandise. One of the most requested song at the time was “Violent Nature” followed by “Era Of Terror” both songs which are featured on “A Decade of Violence”. Apathy would go on to test themselves by taking there show out west in the spring to Arizona and then down past the mason-Dixon line to Virginia ‘08. Apathy wrapped up there year long campaign in New York City opening for thrash metal legend John Connelly (Nuclear Assault) new band Blood Method, before going into the studio to record there album.

 Apathy are currently seeking Major label representation and will be performing until the end of the summer in support of their latest effort. Due to some personal issues Warren Conditi had to take some time off and Manuel Cordova has returned to the band for a few show dates .The  album is still gaining acclaim and more show dates are  being added to support there Decade Of Violence campaign which plans to end this summer.
