Band comments: 'Crossings'. The act of dying, the final curtain call, sometimes dying alone, the surreal and the nightmares."
Johnny The Boy is formed around the creative core of vocalist Belinda Kordic, guitarist Justin Greaves (both members of Crippled Black Phoenix) and bassist Matt Crawford (CBP alumnus and live bassist).
"It began at a rehearsal with CBP many, many years ago," says Greaves. "We were rehearsing down at Arthur's, where CBP used to practice, and it was during one of those rehearsals that I just got on the guitar, someone else got on the drums and we were just fart-arsing about, with Belinda doing her necro vocals! Then we posted a little clip online and people starting asking, 'Oh, is this legit?' Like always, it took fucking years to even think about doing anything, but it was always going to happen."
"In the background, there’s the fact that in the first band I was ever in, I sang that way," adds Kordic. "I really missed doing that. We both missed that whole Iron Monkey, Varukers, aggressive side of music. That's the first way of singing that I loved, and I've missed doing it. So we always wanted to do this."
