Album Notes Boy Kill Boy: Chris Peck, Kevin Chase, Peter Carr. Recording information: 2006. On their debut album CIVILIAN, British band Boy Kill Boy offers up a collection of retro dance-rock with a moody edge. The Killers are a big influence here, as is Interpol. Chris Peck's vocals sail easily over the staccato rhythms and neo-New Wave guitars and synths, and the singer is especially gripping on the disc's few slow burners. This is an album of shimmering rock with a driving energy, a confident album by a confident young band.
Industry Reviews [T]he London quartet ooze undeniable confidence in their strident riffs and bigger-than-life choruses.
Ranked #97 in Q Magazine's 100 Greatest Albums of 2006.
4 stars out of 5 -- Civilian is big music. This means thundering, Stranglers-esque keyboards, Arctic Monkeys-style choppy guitars and Razorlight's swagger.
3 stars out of 5 -- [P]repare to be blindsided midway by the muscular, glammy anthem 'Ivy Parker'.
