Killer Be Killed

Killer Be Killed is a supergroup that stands as a formidable force in the heavy metal genre, synergizing the varied backgrounds and distinct talents of its celebrated members. Formed in 2011, the band boasts a lineup consisting of Greg Puciato, former vocalist of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Max Cavalera of Soulfly and Sepultura fame, Troy Sanders from Mastodon, and Ben Koller of Converge. This combination of musicians from diverse heavy metal spheres has led to a sound that melds elements of thrash, groove metal, and hardcore, underlined by a melody-rich overlay that distinguishes their music from their respective primary bands.

Killer Be Killed released their self-titled debut album in 2014, garnering widespread acclaim for its aggressive yet melodious approach and the seamless integration of each member's signature style. The follow-up, "Reluctant Hero," arrived in 2020, solidifying their position in the metal community. The album is characterised by anthems such as "Inner Calm from Outer Storms," "Dream Gone Bad," and "Deconstructing Self-Destruction," showcasing the group's evolved sound and deepening cohesiveness. Through their releases, Killer Be Killed not only transcends the typical supergroup expectations but also creates a new realm of collaborative heavy music, marked by lyrical depth, complex compositions, and an unmistakable energy that reflects the unique chemistry among its members.
