IDOA plays relentless political death metal/thrash/crossover! Hailing from the crumbling metropolis that is Los Angeles, IDOA formed in 2007 as a studio project before taking to the stage starting in 2010. A long hiatus began in 2012…
But the metal fire began to rage again in 2018, and now in 2020 we are officially back with four new singles.
CURRENT MEMBERS:
Phil Alterman (lead vocals, guitar): Band founder, Phil hails from the DC area and used to publish underground metal zine Sloth from 1995-99. He also formerly co-owned and managed Stone Heavy Sound recording studio in Burbank.
Matthew Williams (guitar, backing vocals): Hailing from the icy climes of Minnesota, Matt is also the lead vocalist of fellow death/thrashers Delphian, who appeared as the band God’s Cock in the Mike Judge movie Extract.
PAST MEMBERS:
Jason Williams (drums): Matt’s younger brother, Jason also plays guitar in Delphian. His youthful energy behind the kit kept IDOA anchored and lethal during live sets. Follow his Instagram @RiffsThatRule.
