There are four Worships: 1 - One of the best known funeral doom bands in the underground. Founded by "Fucked Up Mad" Max Varnier from France and Daniel "The Doommonger" from Germany in the late 1990's, Worship entered the scene with their Last Tape Before Doomsday (MC 1999). That album contained four songs of minimalistic slow doom metal, driven by the tortured vocals of Mad Max and the mournful guitar solo's by The Doommonger. Several splits were released on vinyl after that.

Forming in 2003 this five piece Melbourne band stands strongly under the banner of Australian Hardcore, yet are proud to acknowledge their obvious metal influences. Massive vocals, brutal guitars and a relentless intensity have seen them successfully travel the nation many times with bands like Parkway Drive, Comeback Kid, Most Precious Blood, 50 Lions, Jungle Fever and Terror. In 2005 came the release of their first full length album “No Heaven, No Hell” on Sydney independent label Resist Records.

5 young lads from the South East of Melbourne trying to impact a local scene with a combination of harmonious hardcore/metal/rock. Crown Us Thieves means a direction change not only in the musical style, but in the message being put across. Having spent the last year playing shows under the name FINAL AFFLICTION, the name change is attempt to re-birth what simply was not working for the band. A lineup change meant the departure of Rico Adhitya early this year and arrival of one Peter Davies who we feel privileged to be working with.
