Generation Kill (band)

Generation Kill is an American heavy metal band formed in 2008 in Congers, New York by Rob Dukes (ex-Exodus)[1] After the inclusion of Jason Trenczer, Lou Lehman and Sam Inzerra, the band got to work on writing and recording the first album, Red, White and Blood. Due to creative differences, Inzerra left and Jim DeMaria joined. This lineup recorded their sophomore album, We're All Gonna Die, with producer Zuess.
