The five guys that make up KILLCODE didn't have to rise from ashes or go through some spiritual quest to find themselves where they are today, it just happened.
Collectively, they have sold tens of thousands of records and toured the world with separate bands sometimes sharing the stage with each other, not to mention some of music's royalty.
2008 found guitarist Chas and vocalist Tom Morrissey laying down the building blocks of what was undeniably dirty, kick ass, rock & roll that could not be ignored.
They approached Erric Bonesmith about checking out the songs and seeing if he might dig throwing down some bass. He dug it, and he did.
Next they set their sites on a drummer and after several auditions by drummers from all over the United States, they found Rob Noxious. Rob fit in from day one, and then there were four.
Guitarist Pat Harrington was just getting off tour when he was approached to come jam. He did and :::KILLCODE::: was born!
One of the things that was obvious from the start was the fact that the five guys had common musical ground but born from different genres and influences. It turns out those differences fueled the inspiration and helped create a heavy but melodic, dirty but polished, raw and emotional sound.
In early 2009, :::KILLCODE::: released their debut EP, "To Die For" and has since been blowing the roof off of every venue they come across. They are planning another release in 2010 and will continue to tour and create new music, bringing their unique style of raw, New York City bred, rock to the masses.
"Who can take the grit and leg spreadin' attitude of rock/metal and mix it with the dirty grooves of southern rock? :::KILLCODE:::, the band that came together a year ago in NYC and have since been giving a lesson or two on what makes you throw the metal horns high!"- NY WASTE "We're All Wasted" Summer Issue 09
