History

Judiciary were formed in Lubbock, Texas in 2013. In 2014, they recorded and released a demo, named Demo '14. Their first EP, The Axis of Equality, was released in 2016, and in 2017 they released a split EP with the Canadian hardcore punk band Mortality Rate.

In 2018, they signed with Closed Casket Activities, and released the single "Temple" from their upcoming album on the label. The following year, they released Surface Noise, their first studio album. Surface Noise was produced and engineered by Taylor Young. Surface Noise was mixed and mastered by Arthur Rizk, who previously worked with the American thrash metal band Power Trip. According to the band, the name of the album is a reference to a lyric from the song "It's a Mistake" by Men At Work.

They announced the follow up to Surface Noise in 2023, named Flesh + Blood, and released the single "Engulfed". The album was released through Closed Casket Activities on March 10 that year. Flesh + Blood was produced and engineered by Arthur Rizk, and was mixed and mastered by Will Putney.
