Child Abuse is a boundary-pushing noise rock trio anchored in New York's dynamic underground.

While lineup has evolved over the years, the band’s core ethos remains: uncompromising, immersive sound experiences that challenge listeners while inviting them to lean in. Child Abuse has contributed to the broader discourse of experimental rock, even lending their distinctive imagery to visual art collaborations and press features that spotlight their unsettling, concept-driven approach.
