Misery is the sixth studio album by Australian post-hardcore band the Amity Affliction. The album was released on 24 August 2018.[5] It is the first album without drummer Ryan Burt, following his departure in February 2018.[7] It is the first album to feature Joe Longobardi on drums. However, during recording and the release of this album, he was only a session drummer. He was not made official until the end of 2018. It is also the first album to feature Joel Birch performing clean vocals on some tracks on the album along with the album being a departure from the band's usual straight metalcore sound and instead included some electronic elements on top of the metalcore sound. It is the band's final album for Roadrunner and UNFD.
