Who: Letter Kills
Alternative Rock
Hailed by Alternative Press as “the greatest screamo band you’ve never heard of,” LETTER KILLS rose from the Temecula, California, desert in the early aughts with a riff-heavy collection of hard-charged alternative rock, ’80s hair-metal swagger and punk rock ethos. The band’s 2004 Island Def Jam debut, The Bridge, introduced Letter Kills with a bang: on Fuse and MTV2 with the single “Don’t Believe,” on the Nintendo Fusion Tour alongside My Chemical Romance and in the pages of Rolling Stone.
