-Australia’s Diatribe delivers an 'in your face' brand of 'aggressive verbal attacking metal, with live performances that have left audiences across the country feeling like their senses have been assaulted by a pounding sledgehammer. The band’s 2002 self titled debut EP release received an overwhelming media and industry response, from positive reviews in both national and international metal magazines and webzines to increasing radio airplay support, helping achieve top 10 positions on various music charts and radio listener’s polls.
-The EP quickly sold out, demanding a second pressing with an added bonus Multimedia CD Rom feature being released. Their new full length album "A Product Of Hate" is fast attracting the same overwhelming industry and media response, adding to their ever growing fanbase and gaining even greater attention within the Australian and world metal community. Diatribe have appeared with such bands as The Haunted, Frankenbok, Daysend, Segression and on numerous Australian metal events including The Afterburn Festival, Metal Xmas, Metal Easter and Halloween Hellfest 05.
