Profile:
| Biography - October 2008 The Birthday Massacre is from Toronto, Canada. Combining their interests in various musical and artistic styles, the band has successfully accumulated an impressive international fan base, press accolades, and defied categorization with their unique sound and visuals.
The band was formed in 2000 and independently produced and recorded their first two albums, Nothing and Nowhere and Violet. Through both of these high-demand releases, as well as their highly acclaimed and beautifully atmospheric website, the band has obtained a large and loyal fan base throughout the world. The band's lineup consists of vocalist Chibi, guitarists Rainbow and Mike Falcore, keyboardist Owen, drummer Rhim and the recently returned O.E. on bass.
Due to their independent success, in 2005 they were approached by European record label Repo Records (followed shortly by Metropolis Records in North America) and the band began its steady climb to reaching a much wider audience. 2005 also marked the bands first European festivals, a video for "Blue" and the independent creation of a small DVD collection of videos.
Recently, the band has been busy with a 9 week North American tour supporting Mindless Self Indulgence and the writing and recording of a new album, through the summer and fall of 2008.
Touring in the last couple of years has had the band performing internationally, traveling across Canada, the United States, Mexico, the UK and many European countries (soon adding Australia to the list). They have become renowned for their high-energy live performances, drawing large, mixed crowds through their appeal to fans of a surprisingly wide range of genres. Equally comfortable playing intimate venues as they are on a festival stage, the band's highly-praised performances will continue into the next year as they continue touring.
