Band information

A Million Dead Birds Laughing is an experimental grind band from Melbourne. They won the opening slot on the Melbourne leg of the Summer Slaughter tour in March 2009 and then carved out a staunch reputation with several other major supports. After the release of Xen, vocalist Adam Stewart left the band. In late 2013, AMDBL undertook a national tour with The Schoenberg Automaton and Aeon of Horus and then played a date with Nile and The Faceless in Melbourne before releasing their third CD. In mid 2014, AMDBL toured Australia with Origin and Eternal Rest.
