  • Boy Kill Boy was an English rock band based in Leytonstone, East London. In May 2005, they released their debut single "Suzie" for record label Fierce Panda, from here the future looked bright for Boy Kill Boy. In the summer the band opened the Radio 1 stage on Sunday/Friday of the 2005 Reading and Leeds Festivals. The second single followed later in the year now being signed to Fallout Recordings. "Civil Sin" was featured in Zane Lowe's "Hottest Track In The World Today". In 2006, the single "Back Again" reached #26 in the UK Singles Chart, which earned them a slot on Top of the Pops, and the re-release of "Suzie" reached #17. The debut album Civilian was released on May 22, 2006 and entered the UK Album Chart at #16. In May 2005, the band stepped in to replace Nine Black Alps on the NME New Music Tour 2005 after the band's frontman Sam Forrest caught the mumps. Boy Kill Boy had only been billed to play one support slot on the whole tour but ended up playing numerous extra slots supporting Maxïmo Park and The Rakes. They returned the following year as headliners for NME's New Bands Tour 2006, supported by The Automatic, ¡Forward, Russia!, and The Long Blondes. They toured in the US supporting The Charlatans and Echo & the Bunnymen (Ian McCulloch's a big fan) and played an extensive UK Headline tour in October. On November 7, 2006, they supported Feeder for one of their dates in aid of War Child at the Camden Roundhouse. This was also in conjunction with the "Shoot Me Down" single, released for the charity. The Fierce Panda release of "Suzie" appeared on the soundtrack of the street football video game FIFA Street 2, released in winter 2006 by Electronic Arts. "Civil Sin" appeared on the soundtrack to the FIFA 07 football video game. Also, their single "Back Again" appears in the Test Drive Unlimited videogame. Boy Kill Boy recorded their second album in Los Angeles with Oasis producer Dave Sardy, and returned with the limited edition single "No Conversation" on November 5, 2007. The album, entitled Stars and the Sea, was released on March 31, 2008. However, the album failed to come anywhere near or repeat the success of the debut, before rumours of a split began surfacing. On October 12, 2008, Boy Kill Boy confirmed this via their MySpace bulletin. They also performed a cover of Nelly Furtado's 'Maneater' for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.
  • Boy Kill Boy war eine Indie-Rock Band aus London, die 2004 gegründet wurde, jedoch in dem Jahr auch für einige Monate auf Eis gelegt wurde. Die Musik weist Einflüsse aus No Wave und Post Punk auf, weshalb sie in einigen Magazinen immer wieder mit der Band Editors verglichen werden. Ihre Debütsingle Suzie erschien im Mai 2005. Ende 2005 brachten sie mit Civil Sin den bis dahin wohl bekanntesten Song heraus, was unter anderem auch daran lag, dass er Teil des Fifa-07-Soundtracks ist. Einen Monat nach der Veröffentlichung ihres zweiten Albums „Stars and the Sea“ verloren sie den Vertrag mit ihrer Plattenfirma. Am 12. Oktober 2008 gaben sie über ihre myspace-Seite ihre Trennung bekannt
