Reverend Kill came to life in the spring of 2004,Formed by Don Stenhouse,I sat alone with my drum machine and 8 track and started writing riffs that were nothing more than just cool laid back groovin’ Metal.No certain dierection or genre just Metal.After a couple months i had more than enough tunes for a cd so Started the awesome task of getting a band going.First off I met Matt Robson a young guitarist/horror freak and we started ripping it up damn near every day for hours and hours.After a couple months Matt met Bassist Steve Withrow on the internet or something(likely some wierd online dating thing)He took a listen to the tunes and liked them and soon he became a Calgarian and the Drunken Frontman for Reverend Kill.On drums we had help from a old friend of Don’s from the Thorazine days Scott Tanner.This is the Lineup that recorded the first cd.We ripped out a few killer shows before Scottie left the band to join Operation Wintermist(local Black Metal Godz).Matt also left to pursue education and other interests, possibly making some gory horror movies.That was Reverend Kill Version 1. We started advertising for musicians when pretty much at the same time Vinnie Cardellini(drums) and Teran Wyer(guitar)came along,both kinda digging our style of Metal,They chose to become Reverend Kill. In mid 2006 Steve got offered work outta town. This caused problems with being able to play and jam. This meant a big change was in store for us cause he was the voice. After trying out way too many vocalists we came to realise clean vocals weren’t for us. We sorta readjusted ourselves to become a Death Metal Band, seeing that none of us really listen to much with clean vocals anyways, and we don’t wanna be on the faggy radio either. We decided we are taking ourselves in a much Heavier direction and will continue to do so till the bitter end. After playing a few shows with screwed up lineups we found a Bassist named Kyle Farrell ex-Injust who came along learned the tunes and is pumped and ready to go. In the fall we met Graham Harris ex-Genepool. A singer from Scottland relocated to Calgary, and things sorta clicked right quick. He instantly started taking our tunes and working with them and we liked the results of his work. We basically went back to the drawing board on the next cd restructuring all the songs and getting it all good with the new vocals. Now with a new full lineup we are ready to go again. Hopefully people like the 2 Guitar attack and can relate to the songs we have written.We are starting to play more shows and are itching to venture out on the road to other places and see if people like to come drink with The Kill. And Lets Pound out some Metal. Hope you all dig the tunes and There will be some Killer new ones coming soon.
