About Peace Killers
Over the years, Sacramento has produced a diverse array of bands including Deftones, Will Haven, Far, Cake, Death Grips, Trash Talk, CHRCH, Battle Hag, Bog Oak, among many others. Peace Killers are excited and proud to follow in the footsteps of these great bands.
The members of Peace Killers make up a combined 40 years of experience in the Northern California punk and hardcore scenes. The style of writing is swift, intuitive, and improvisational. The result is an early metal sound with a DIY punk ethic. The band boasts a second lead guitar that creates a 3-D effect in the band’s blues-based sound. It is inspired by the twin guitars of legends like Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden. Apart from those names, influences include the Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, Van Halen, UFO, Melvins, Fu Manchu, Queens of the Stone Age, Red Fang, Witchcraft, and KISS.
