Formed in Orange County, California in 1991, Dystopia is a sludge band, popular in both the heavy metal and crust punk scenes, due in large part to their bleak, misanthropic imagery. Lyrics often deal with human emotion and social or political issues such as environmentalism, racial equality, animal rights, and veganism.
