Band information
Fuck... I'm Dead is an incredibly crushing and debauched grindcore band from Melbourne. The band formed in mid-2000 by Hill, Raetz and Jones, all former members of Open Wound and Arseripper. After issuing a split vinyl release with Germany's Sanity’s Dawn the band was picked up by Razorback Records for the 23-track album release. Fuck... I'm Dead's sound features surprising bursts of melody and groove that makes them stand out from the grind crowd. The band has a fearsome live reputation that made them one of the highlights of Metal for the Brain in 2003. In 2005 the band appeared at the festival once more in both Canberra and Perth.
Fuck… I’m Dead doesn’t appear to suffer even though Hill is also a member of The Day Everything Became Nothing, Jones was formerly with The Kill and at one point all three members featured in Shallow Grave. In mid-2006 the band toured with Cryptopsy and also released a live DVD. During 2007 the FID announced they would be experimenting with a live drummer. Up until then the band was using a machine exclusively. Darren Condy joined in mid-2007 and shortly afterward Xavier Irvine from The Day Everything Became Nothing was also added on guitar.
Fuck... I'm Dead played the Maryland Death Fest and other selected US shows in May 2008; in July they will support Dismember in Melbourne.
