Troy Sanders states, “Tour life is filthy, fun, and rare are those who heed the journeys call. With reverence paid to those who have inspired us, this song is an homage to them.”
‘Reluctant Hero’ was met with widespread praise.
Revolver and Kerrang! magazines featured the band on covers, Loudwire said the music is “crushing”, Metal Injection claimed the songs will “rip your damn head off”, Brooklyn Vegan proclaimed it “anthemic” and Consequence of Sound noted that the band is “hitting on all cylinders.”
KILLER BE KILLED is singer/guitar player Max Cavalera (Soulfly/ex- Sepultura), drummer Ben Koller (Converge/Mutoid Man), singer/guitar player Greg Puciato (The Dillinger Escape Plan/The Black Queen) and singer/bass player Troy Sanders (Mastodon/Gone is Gone). The first whispers of the metal supergroup came in 2011, with the band dubbing themselves KILLER BE KILLED in late 2013 and shortly thereafter announcing the 2014 release of their self-titled debut. They made their live debut the following year as part of Australia’s Soundwave Festival. Metal Injection deemed the album “controlled chaos” and Loudwire said the band “has its own identity while still sounding enough like Soulfly, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Mastodon to appeal to the fan bases of each of those bands.” In November of 2020, the group released their follow-up album, ‘Reluctant Hero’ to much fanfare.
Gracing the covers of both Kerrang! and Revolver mag azines, critics worldwide praised the 11-song album. Canadian music mag, Exclaim said the collection “proves metal can be catchy without being stupid.”
U.S. based Blabbermouth described ‘R eluctant Hero’ as “impressive… and certainly atypical to what’s popular in heavy music these days.”
Australia’s Heavy Magazine summarized their praise for the album with “it’s f***ing amazing” and Metal Hammer declared KBK the “finest supergroup of the past decade.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
