Come to our about page have you?
We didn't expect many people to make it this far.
What we thought we'd do is be honest about what we are and what we're looking to achieve.
It was late 2008 that we called ourselves Fearless Vampire Killers. We wanted it to be something that carried a load of baggage, like a badge of honour but also something that we'd need to prove. It came from a film we'd grown up watching, and it fit with everything we stood for; fighting back against oppressors of any sort, making something of yourself and rising above the ones that did you harm.
As individuals we really weren't that good at life, but together we knew that with enough work, we could make something incredible. With that we set to work creating a concept that our songs and our image could fit within: An idea we named Grandomina, something of an idealised image of what the world could be, though still with its fair share of flaws and vice. The songs we write therefore can be taken in anyway the listener wants - the lyrics are metaphorical, and though they may reference the concept, we wanted them to be honest and emotional: Songs that people could relate to and maybe even songs that would help people through hard times.
So yeah, we're Fearless Vampire Killers, we do what we want and we couldn't care less how much people get niggled by our make up or weirded out by what we're singing about. We're freaks, and if you've come to this page then you probably are a bit too. Now let's get together and gear up. We're here to set hearts alight and tell the Heartataks where to stick it.
