I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN

No longer in the shadow of American or European scenes, Australia is now producing world class metal and hardcore acts at an alarming rate. This sunburnt land is fast becoming recognised as a breeding ground for the next generation of brutal, melodic, passionate and thought provoking artists ready to dominate.

Enter I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN.

IKTPQ have already established themselves as a major force in Australian HC & Metal with a plethora of accolades behind them, their debut album "When Goodbye Means Forever", debuted in the AIR charts at #12 before breaking into the top 10 at #6 where it remained for over six weeks, something previously unheard of for a local hardcore or metal band. They have also toured with a "who's who" of the current front runners of the post hardcore and rock/metal genres such as, Silverstein, The Haunted, Soilwork, Fear Factory and Alexisonfire as well as metal legends Exodus. IKTPQ have also been a regular fixture on the festival circuit making appearances on Australian festivals such as "Big Day Out", "Overcranked", "Destroy Music Tour" and the "Come Together Festival" and International dates such "Hellfest" (New Jersey USA) and various North American and UK dates also under their collective belts.

With their phoenix rising IKTPQ knew they needed to deliver the goods and thus embarked on their most ambitious venture to date opting to travel to Sweden to record the sophomore release with legendary producer Fredrik Nordstrom and Patrik J. Sten (In Flames, Soilwork, At The Gates). The result is stunning slab of Australian metallic hardcore injected with melody, razor sharp riffing, crushing breakdowns while still allowing each song to breathe creating an album full of hooks and classy craftsmanship.

"Music for the Recently Deceased" will be unleashed on July 24th to an already rabid fanbase and with a touring schedule that will keep IKTPQ on the road for the remainder of 2006 so you can expect their message to spread and their music to conquer.
