A new album is set to arrive in 2024.
"The contribution from each member blends seamlessly."
In saying goodbye to their deathcore sound, Job For A Cowboy have made a seriously solid death metal album.
No letdowns here
In the bands early beginnings, many wrote Job For A Cowboy off as being just another Myspace metal band, who was big on the internet, but really didn't belong in the same sentance as death metal. Fast forward 4 years and the band has not only played with countless seminal death metal bands like Cannibal Corpse, but has their second full length, 'Ruination', out now via Metal Blade/Riot. We caught up with frontman Jonny Davy to shoot the shit about all things metal!
Straight up death metal without the core.
