The Accident Experiment, also called AeX, is a rock band based in San Diego, California. It was formed in 2002 when co-founder Marcos Curiel left former band P.O.D.

The band featured Curiel on guitar, Pete Stewart (Grammatrain, Tait) with the vocals, Tony Delocht on bass, and Ernie Longoria on drums (both from Sprung Monkey).

The band's first EP, Arena, was released in 2003. In 2005, the band signed to indie label Rock Ridge Music, and their first full-length album,United We Fear, was released May 9, 2006. A video has been shot and released for the first single Sick Love Letter.

Curiel and Longoria began jamming and they solidly evolved into a steady rock act opening to Foo Fighters, Drowning Pool, Staind, and other known bands.

In December 2006, Curiel re-joined P.O.D. and The Accident Experiment went on hiatus. Their Arena E.P is being re-released by Rock Ridge Music on May 8,2007. The e.p will include new songs by the group. There has been talk of the band getting back in the studio sometime in 08.
