Generation Kill

Generation Kill is an American crossover thrash band formed in 2008 in Congers, New York by vocalist Rob Dukes (ex-Exodus). After the inclusion of Jason Trenczer, Lou Lehman and Sam Inzerra, the band got to work on writing and recording the first album, Red, White and Blood. Due to creative differences, Inzerra left and Jim DeMaria joined. This lineup recorded their sophomore album, We're All Gonna Die, with producer Zuess.

With new drummer Robert Youells, the band released an album with former Run-DMC member Darryl "DMC" McDaniels in a project initially titled DMC Generation Kill; the project was later renamed Fragile Mortals. In 2022, the band released MKUltra, the follow-up to We're All Gonna Die.

The name Generation Kill was given by Dukes after the book of the same name.
