Antagony is a grindcore/deathcore band originating from Danville, California, United States. Formed in 1999 following the dissolution of the crust punk group Y.F.H., the founding lineup included Nick Vasallo, Carlos Saldana, Ben Orum, and Jody Handy. Initially rooted in grindcore, Antagony later transitioned toward a deathcore style and has been recognized as one of the genre’s pioneering acts.

The band’s lyrical focus evolved over time, with early material driven by themes of anger, and later releases exploring mortality and introspective life lessons. After a decade of activity from 1999 to 2009, Antagony reformed in 2019 and remains active, operating independently without label affiliation. Read more on Last.fm.
