Formed in 1981, Adrenalin O.D. (A.O.D.) became a crucial voice in the first wave of the East Coast hardcore scene, known for blending hyperspeed riffing with razor-sharp, sarcastic wit. With albums like The Wacky Hijinks of Adrenalin O.D. and Humungousfungusamongus , the band cemented their place as one of the fastest—and funniest—punk bands ever. They influenced a massive array of punk and metal legends, from NOFX and Screeching Weasel to Anthrax , Municipal Waste , and Lamb Of God .

A.O.D. earned their cult following not only through breakneck tracks like “A.O.D. vs. Godzilla” and “Pizza-n-Beer,” but also through their chaotic, high-energy shows that mixed satire with sheer sonic force. Despite extensive touring across the U.S. in the '80s, the UK and Europe have never experienced A.O.D.'s madness—until now.

These shows coincide with the long-awaited vinyl reissues of their seminal works and the release of drummer Dave Scott’s comedic memoir, already being hailed as essential reading for any punk historian or fan of DIY hilarity. 

With production credits including Daniel Rey (Ramones, Iggy Pop, Misfits) and Andy Shernoff (The Dictators) , and past releases on labels like Relapse , Beer City , Chunksaah , and Buy Our Records , A.O.D.'s legacy is well-earned. And in 2026, their saga continues with an appearance in the upcoming horror-comedy film King Me .

For fans of: D.R.I., Suicidal Tendencies, S.O.D.

Get ready, UK—Adrenalin O.D. is finally coming to wreck your stage, blow your mind, and make you laugh until you puke.
