With only a few more dates left on their cross Canada Tour in promotion of their recently released EP #Punk#Zombie#RocknRoll, Vancouver’s Kill Matilda vocalist/guitarist Dusty Exner has posted a new tour blog on the band’s most recent road adventures titled ‘The Prairies – Rum Running & Hair Dye Freezing’.
Tour Blog Update #3: http://trailerparkdusty.wordpress.com/2014/03/31/tour-update-3-the-prairies-rum-running-hair-dye-freezing/
Kill Matilda released a six song EP/ re-release ‘#Punk#Zombie#RocknRoll‘ on March 4th that features tracks from their 2011 full-length album ‘I Want Revenge’ with an acoustic rendition of ‘Geisha With A Switchblade’, which is accompanied by a comic book created by vocalist/guitarist Dusty Exner that can be downloaded at http://killmatilda.com/.
After a small hiatus due to health issues from a tumor in a carotid artery and an Ectopic pregnancy, Kill Matilda hasn’t let the odds against them stop them from an ass-kicking mission to Punk, Zombie and Rock n’ Roll across Canada.
“I have a guitar, I have a microphone. One week out of my hospital bed, I will meet you onstage.” Dusty Exner (vocalist/guitarist) – A Rocky Start, A Re-commitment – http://trailerparkdusty.wordpress.com/2014/01/23/a-rocky-start-a-recommitment/
Also in the plans for later this year, the band will be releasing their yet to be titled follow up EP produced by producer extraordinaire Garth Richardson.
“The amazing attention of Garth Richardson! Although this man has produced so many amazing albums and we’re not the only band getting some attention and love, he took the extra steps to personally engineer our new album, which is something he has not done in like, 10 years or something. That makes me feel very, very special.” says KM vocalist/guitarist Dusty Exner.

About: Featuring a combination of death and thrash metal, the Edmonton-based band are known to devastate their audiences with their high octane performances that has lead them to share the stage over the years with high profile names such as Kataklysm, Cryptopsy, The Haunted, and Aborted (to name a few).
Originally formed in 2003 in Stony Plain, AB, Canada, Death Toll Rising have been grinding the Western Canadian metal scene steadily, gaining huge momentum over the last 3 years. New addition Tylor Dory on guitars has introduced a technical and progressive element to the band they have not had in the past. Add in the intense and relentless drumming provided by Bryan Newbury (recently recruited by Canadian prog/death powerhouse INTO ETERNITY), as well as the well-rounded rhythm provided by Drew Copland on guitar and Mike Puff on bass, and you get a monster that is only now being unleashed upon the masses with vocalist Jesse Berube topping things off with a combination of brutal death growls and Tomas Lindberg-esqe high shrieks, which will be plenty noticeable on their new album ‘Infection Legacy’.
Full album stream of ‘Infection Legacy’ can be listened on Beatroute Magazine here or Soundcloud here along with being purchased on Bandcamp here.
