About Apocalypse Theatre

About apocalypse theatre Apocalypse Theatre (also known as Apox) has been around in name since the early 90's, but Apox has changed sounds and members from song to song, CD to CD, season to season. Always melding styles & genres, & attitudes. Apox has reinvented itself and destroyed itself in fiery crashes a dozen times. Apox has performed in 45 of the United States, and tallied 450+ performances. From the deserts of Nevada's Burning Man festival to the Halls, Clubs, and basements of many many small towns, suburban worlds, and big cities all across the USA. They have shared the bill with Switchblade Symphony, Rozz Williams, Pigface, and dozens & dozens of other notable underground favorites. Apox has released 3 CD's and each represents a homebase. Wash. DC, then San Francisco, and finally Minneapolis where the core currently resides. Apox is a living journal, with an ever changing cast of mutant cyber-pirates, punks, goths, and metal misfits. Hope Hillman & V. Mercy have alternated in the role of Captain & co-captain, steering this Titanic love child since birth, and inspiring one mutiny after another, tearing the ship in half, sometimes drowning the crew & its cargo. Yet, despite the odds, a spark always survives and eventually it ignites the whole damn bonfire / psycho drama on wheels all over again. There is no need for apology, because Apox is not for everyone, nothing is.. but there are those who seek another hybrid underground soundtrack to dance, gather, laugh, scream, rage & run amok to. We live in a perilous age, and the future seems uncertain, so while some of you may seek your dose of escapism within the confines of one or two uniform based genres we remain wide open to everything ugly and beautiful. "V. Mercy de la Sangre" proclaims that he is the Captain now, but in the endless night as Hope stares into the eyes of purity & innocence, another mutiny is being scripted... http://www.myspace.com/apocalypsetheatre
