Kill Or Be Killed was originally formed in the year of 2006.
Kill Or Be Killed originally formed as a project to kill time for a couple of friends, but then turned into something more after playing shows and the reaction going over so well.
With the great responses the band was receiving, bigger shows would come up and shortly there after, Kill or Be Killed hit the studio to record there first full length album with long time friend, Marty Williamson of Williamson Recordings in Clovis, NM.
May of 2008 would be the month the CD was released, one of the first full length metal albums to come out from a local Lubbock band. With the CD coming out, Kill or Be Killed seemed to be on the right path to make a name for themselves and set out to hit all surrounding areas including Odessa, TX. Clovis and Hobbs New Mexico, and even Dallas TX.
While 2008 would bring the debut of the full length, things would seem to fall short in early 2009 when lead guitarest Jaymz Gelber decided to leave the band. Shortly after, another decision has to be made and another long time member would no longer be in the band either.
With all the changes being set in Kill or Be Killed, the remaining members are trying to get the pieces of the puzzle put back together. Stepping in on Bass would be Adam Wright, who also plays Bass for local metal band Sinfull Bliss and fronts local metal band Hail to Arms.
Kill or Be Killed have found a new guitarist in Tony Rubio. WIth the lineup now complete, KoBk have returned to there practice schedule and are aiming to return to playing live shows April 20, 2009 and the second annual Smokefest @ the Lonestar Event Center.

"No matter how many shows we get to open, without the fans, we would be no where and nothing, so what ever chance we get, we want you to know, you make this band and you take this band to the next level and from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the endless support." - Kill or Be Killed
