Bury Your Dead (sometimes abbreviated to BYD) is a five-piece metalcore band that hails from Worcester, Massachusetts, United States.
Formed in 2001, Bury Your Dead began as a side project of the band Hamartia featuring Brendan “Slim” MacDonald (guitar) and Mark Castillo (Drums). With the metalcore sound of Hamartia growing tiresome to both Slim and Mark, they started writing less technical songs in their free time. They recruited Steve Kent to play bass, second guitarist Jesse Viens, and Joe Krewko as vocalist and began playing shows in Massachusetts and Connecticut under the name Bury Your Dead. News of their unbridled energy and destructive live show spread immediately around the East Coast hardcore scenes and the band was courted by Alveran/Eulogy Records.
The band recorded and released their debut album titled You Had Me At Hello in March 2002, borrowed a van, then toured in support of it. After several successful tours Bury Your Dead decided to go their separate ways - Mark (drums) moved back to Philadelphia and began touring with Between the Buried and Me, Rich (bass) went back to running his own screen-printing business, and Slim (guitar) began playing guitar in the band Blood Has Been Shed.
After several months had passed, Rich Casey contacted Slim and expressed his interest in reforming Bury Your Dead. They rounded up some of their old lineup, with a few others to fill in, and played some shows before heading down to Florida to play the annual Gainesville Fest.

Matt Bruso is a teacher now, he's not coming back. Quit complaining and just enjoy this band. Mike's really not bad at all. To be honest I enjoy the albums with him even more than the older ones. I guess.

when I started listening to BYD, I sampled Mat Bruso BYD and Myke Terry BYD. I thought I liked both of them. But when I sat down and listened to "Beauty and the Breakdown" then "It's Nothing Personal" I saw how wrong I was. Mat Bruso was a much better lead singer, not to mention his lyrics are much better. Not to mention I loved the whole concept behind "Beauty." Cover Your Tracks is also an awesome CD, much better than "It's Nothing Personal."

maybe people tag it as a hardcore band because they used to be a hardcore band. that just might be the reason.
