Killing Yourself For Profit

Killing Yourself For Profit are an up and coming metal band from Auckland merging some of Auckland’s already established metal bands such as Fuelset, Upraw and Burn The Scripture.

No matter your preferred style of metal, there is bound to be something you like with their first single Betrayal Begets Blood – Throwing in a bit of everything from grooving, chugging riffs to melodic tech, and of course the breakdown style riffs to get the pit going, there are even vocal harmonies blending growling screams on the track.

This is not one of those over produced metal tracks, if that’s what you’re looking for go somewhere else… This is raw aggression. This is focusing on song writing and performance rather than a fancy overseas producer. This is kiwi metal.

As well as already receiving airplay on The Axe Attack, Killing Yourself For Profit are also about to release a music video for this track very soon so keep your eyes out!

Having graduated from UCOL’s music course in 2011, I began working with Tararua Television hosting a monthly local music show called “Off The Stage”, where I interviewed and showcased people working within the local music scene. I am in a blues rock band called “The Blue Grizzly Band” as well as a metal band called “Defetus”. I teach guitar lessons and busk regularly. I am also a radio host on Access Radio’s Metal Heads Radio (NZ Metal), and Black & Blues Radio (blues and soul) shows. I am also regularly involved in charity events. My love of music began at an early age, having a wide interest in genres ranging from Reggae and Blues to Rock and Metal, and a few in between. https://www.facebook.com/TheBlueGrizzlyBand https://www.facebook.com/defetus https://www.facebook.com/pages/Manawatu-Metal/126468620697622 https://www.facebook.com/blackandblue999 [email protected]
