The new supergroup containing members of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Mastodon, Soulfly and The Mars Volta have released details about their debut album.
"We [Puciato and Cavalera] did the song on Soulfly’s ‘Omen’ and then we started talking about doing an entire album together, the way he had with Alex Newport," TDEP frontman Greg Puciato explained. "We eventually got together with some riffs we both had and wrote a bunch more material in a 72-hour blast out in the desert. We left with about 15 demos we made using the same drum machine and four track Max used working on Chaos A.D." As far as the band's style goes, Puciato describes it as: "It’s a bit of Sabbath-y doom, a bit of thrash, a bit of hardcore and punk."
One of the many awesome things about this team-up is that every member will be performing vocals. As Max Cavalera (Soulfly) explains, “This is a very special project. It’s a one of a kind thing, with a lot of potential. The album is a mix of heavy, fast and melodic songs. I love the idea of Greg, Troy and I singing together, with David Elitch’s amazing drumming. Being a part of this is something quite different for me.”
Killer Be Killed's debut album is set to be released some time next year via Nuclear Blast records.
