Biography

DeathBoy have been together since July 2002 operating as a four or five piece crew on stage and in the studio. The core members are Scott (vocals / songwriting), Jason (guitar), Adam (bass) and Phil (drums). The band now employs Lee Chaos of Chaos Engine and Wasp Factory records on synths for live gigs. The less offensive lyrics are penned by Matthew Phillips, a friend of Scott’s since childhood, though Scott invariably adds swearing and drugs references afterwards.

The band coined the term “Futurepunk” and half-mockingly professes that to be their correct genre, in reaction to other awkwardly thrown together ideas like “Futurepop” and “Deathrock”. Claims to a link to punk owe as much to the DIY ethic and habit of releasing (huge amounts) of demo material to fans both at gigs online, as to Scott’s drinking and hairstyle.

    Scott, you rock. I'm a big fan of yours, been listening to your music for five or six years now and I never get bored of it. Keep up the good work!

    @TheBlackRaven87 - I didn't knowingly copy anything in Empathy Malfunction :) But they say there's nothing new under the sun, I'm sure it probably does sound like something out there... if you figure out which track, let me know!

    maybe it's just me, but somehow i believe i heard a similar song structure & the melody of "empathy malfunction" before. if not, and the track is 100% original and not taken from somewhere, then: BIG respect from me.

    The only thing I regret about deleting my history on this website is losing my play count of deathboy music.

    You know, sometimes I forget how awesome your stuff is. And then I stick it on out of pure "not listened to this in a while", and I am reminded in a big way.
