The band is recognized for their energetic and powerful live performances. They have toured extensively, both in Australia and internationally, building a dedicated fanbase.

The Amity Affliction continued to release successful albums, including “Misery” (2018) and “Everyone Loves You… Once You Leave Them” (2020). These albums maintained their signature sound while exploring new sonic territories.
