Victim Of Modern Age
Biography
The words "Victim of Modern Age" were first combined by author Anthony Burgess in his novel A Clockwork Orange. They emerged from those pages in 2001 as the name of a musical group which left the Lake Charles region of Louisiana, the area where the band formed, and relocated in that year to a place teeming with musicians, Lafayette, LA, home of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Originally called "Ponder," the group changed their name to Victim of Modern Age or "VOMA" because it was something that they felt was "more appropriate." The artistic explosion being experienced by the small college town was enhanced by the music of guitarist/vocalist Bobby Nixon, drummer Dan Robertson, and bassist Nathan Carnes. After relocation the group then recorded a four-song self-titled EP which, at the urging of a friend, was mailed to Universal Warning Records. The UWR label agreed to release the record in June of 2002 as the first of a two- or three-record deal. Three months after their debut release Allen Clements from Claymore was invited to join on guitar and vocals. Work on a full-length record began in October of 2002, resulting in Channels Like Capillaries.
