Born from the ashes of legendary punk and hardcore acts Guiltripp, Sailor
Punch, Millitant Intervention, Eji, and Extra stout, Killing The Dream
formed in late 2002 when Eli (vocals), Isaac (drums), and Chris (bass)
hooked up with Joel (guitar) and started practicing sparsely in between
their collective 233456 other bands' schedules. Back then, practice
consisted mostly of covering Kid Dynamite's "Shiner," writing songs that
never saw the light of day, and Joel singing fantasy metal songs about the
ancient forest of elves. In early 2003, while Embrace The End (Joel's other
band) was on hiatus, the band was able to practice more often and write songs
that would eventually wind up on the demo. In April of 2003 they recorded
a five song demo with Zack Ohren at Castle Ultimate in Oakland.
Unfortunately, Eli developed problems with his throat and the band was put
on hold for a few months. Finally, after a long four months, and the
addition of Bart on second guitar, Eli's throat got better and in August,
the demo was finally done. The first show was on September 26, 2003 with friends and label mates Time For Living, plus Lights Out and Cross the
Line. After playing a few more local shows, the band headed up on a short trip to the northwest, and
shortly thereafter hooked up with Rival Records. Expect the bands' debut 7"/CDEP in early 2004, with plenty more
shows and tours to follow.
