History

Audionom is a Stockholm supergroup that quickly became a popular live act known for its abrasive shows that also integrated the films of member Martin Malm.

Audionom was formed 1999 by members of two local Stockholm bands, Apparat and PVC. They released a number of tapes and singles for Swedish labels between 1999 and 2002, which were collected onto a full-length album entitled Retrospektiv, released in 2005.

The band reunited in 2007 released a new album - entitled 'Superior' - on Ideal Recordings on February 26, 2009.
