She Kills
She Kills was a metal hardcore band from Halifax, Nova Scotia that was formed in the summer of 2003 after the break up of the bands Flesh Made To Suffer and Tomorrows Demise. The band played a style of metal and hardcore that now has been coined metalcore but the best comparisons would be to bands like At the Gates, Unearth and Darkest Hour. The bands first show was in December of 2003. She Kills became a big draw through out the Maritime provinces and ended up being the token local band for support of most international tours that would come through the area. The band self released 3 song CD to support a Canadian tour with Bleeding Through in the spring of 2004, as well as a the 5 song EP titled ‘The Beginning EP’ in the fall of 2005 before their attempt at a first full North American Tour that ended half way due to reoccurring van problems. The band played their final show on New Years day 2006 and a reunion show in December of 2006.
The band had many member changes, which left only two original members Andrew Waite (guitar) and Ryan Greeley (vocals) at the end. The band has featured over 11 members from pretty much every band from the area during that time which included prominent Halifax bands Risky Business, Envision, and Useless Solution.
