Hardcore
To Kill started for the love of friendship and hardcore. Five friends who played in other bands and wanted to have the chance to share their experience is quite common, however, the uncommon thing is the total dedication to the band that makes To Kill, after just few years, one of the most promising bands in today’s European hardcore scene. The example for this dedication is the huge amount of shows
they’ve been playing around Europe as well as the U.S.. To Kill has been touring relentlessly after the release of their debut mcd on Still Life Records and their debut album “Watching You Fall” on the American Catalyst Records. Receiving enthusiastic reviews and an awesome feedback brought them to play in front of thousands of kids over the years with bands like Comeback Kid, Bane, Madball, Walls of
Jericho, Agnostic Front, Terror, The Path of Resistance, Champion releasing their incredible on-stage rage, which soon gave them a name as one of Europe’s top live bands. The winter of 2006 marked a new era for To Kill after having signed with GSR Music, one of the best and hardest working labels in Europe. The release of “Vultures”, their crushing debut album for GSR, which delivers their usual brand of fast and heavy hardcore, plus some new influences which range from mid-tempo modern hardcore and metal influences, always staying true to their roots, which means being fast and heavy as hell!!! After their long winter tour with American metal band Gather, visiting almost every country in Europe, To Kill didn’t stop one second. A huge amount of shows followed, before their most important tour at the time, the “killing it” tour, supporting Swedish hardcore legends Raised Fist together with the promising Canadian band I Hate Sally, which definitely established the name of To Kill in the European hardcore scene and after that they played several big festivals in europe and toured with the melodic heroes set your goals and no trigger . In the spring of 2008 the band released their acclaimed second effort for gsr records, "when blood turns into stone", a fresh new record a little more metal influenced which was called as one of the best records of the year by rocksound magazine which gave them the award for "best italian live band" for the year. In the year 2008 they had the chance to tour with some of the biggest bands in today's hardcore and metal scene, like parkway drive, suicide silence and bury your dead, they did their first headliner tour in europe supported by two american bands, Recon and Liferuiner. In 2009, after Spending a lot of time on the road, touring and going into new countries like eastern Europe with Bane,
solidifying their base in italy with the Atticus rock your weekend tour for example, they took time to write their new record, anticipated by the mcd "Maelstrom" which has been released as a benefit for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, an organization strongly supported by the band. The new record is going to be called "Antarctica" and represents a step forward into the band's life, blending more and more their hardcore roots with their metal influences and some more, creating what's probably their most personal release to date. It will be released from the new partners in crime: Let It Burn Records! This new exciting cooperation will lead the band towards new horizons. 2010 Will lalso be a year full of touring, starting in february with their full european tour with Shai hulud and Endwell. but more, much more is to come....
