Formed in Florida in 2014, Bodysnatcher evolved into one of the most prominent bands in the modern extreme music landscape. Taking their name from Ed Gein, the notorious criminal who inspired classic horror films such as Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho, they have built their reputation on an extremely violent sound that sits between deathcore and hardcore, as well as their explosive live performances.
Comprising Kyle Medina (vocals), Kyle Carter (guitar), Kyle Shope (bass), and Chris Whited (drums), Bodysnatcher began their journey with Abandonment EP (2015) and their debut album Death of Me (2017). Through releases such as Bleed-Abide (2022), the Vile Conduct EP, and this year’s Hell Is Here, Hell Is Home, described by Kerrang! as “the most brutal album of the year”, they have reached what is arguably the peak of their career to date.
