Universal Order of Armageddon

The band formed in September 1992. By early 1993, after quickly gaining a small but devoted following, they recorded and toured the East Coast. They became known for their extreme, short, and chaotic performances, which sometimes resulted in complete destruction. Larry Livermore (founder of Lookout! Records) was so impressed by their live performances that he stated in a magazine column that punk bands should take note of U.O.A. and bring back this type of energy into punk rock. Drummer Brooks Headley once said, "Our live shows are like turning on a vacuum cleaner for like ten minutes". They went on to release records on indie labels such as Kill Rock Stars, Gravity, and Jade Tree. They toured the United States several times between 1993-1994 in support of those releases before breaking up in late 1994.

Following the band's demise, Joy and Malat started the group The Great Unraveling, and Headley went on to play in the group's final lineup. Seven moved to Seattle, Washington[2] in 2007. Beginning in October 2009 through May 2010, he completed a road trip on his motorcycle from Seattle to all the way to Argentina.

The four original members of the group played a series of shows in July 2010. This was followed by further live performances announced for the following January.
