Altered Beast is a progressive shitcore band from central MA. The duo (sometimes trio when they drink large amounts of alcoholic brews, ie brewskis, ie natty ice) have been performing A++ quality music since the spring of 2009 when the two entered a slam poetry contest and totally nailed all the chicks there.
The two shortly thereafter entered a dingy recording studio known as "Bubba's Butt Barn" where they recorded their 30 song debut album "Become The Werebear". Featuring such hits as "Anne Frank And Beans", "Beer N Shit", "Pokecock", and "Ball Sweat", the band ensured themselves among the best in the genre. Playing in crack houses, broken homes, and nudist colonies across the state, they gained the title of "Best Live Act" for 5 years in a row. Later that summer, AB recorded their sophomore album "Grab The Power-Up", returning to their Sega Genesis roots with some sweet in-your-face chiptune fuckage. "Octamom" was nominated for a Grammy, "Craigslist Killer" was a true testament of its time, and "Acid Trip" was based on a true story that never happened for legal reasons.
Feeling fully evolved as a band, John and Mike ventured to new unexplored realms... sodomy. "That One Time I Lost My Virginity to Mr. Mime" was released in September 2009, featuring the life stories of over 50 different Pokemon. It is the first album in a concept suite covering the original 151 Pokemanz. Nintendo has sued the band for copyright abuse but fuck that shit fight the man etc
The band's last full release, an EP titled "The Beast Goes Punk" is pop punk and shit. Snuff films. Marbles. MARBLES.
Altered Beast will be opening for Thundersword on their 2011 tour of Somalia and the Galapagos Islands. They are working on their next album, which is a concept album based upon biblical fictionture.
Also, you should totally pirate their music. Here is their greatest hits album "The Adventures of One Pale Kid And One Slightly Less Pale Kid"
