Evidently MAC likes them and they've been in-communicado on the latest album. Sez so in the article, doesn't it?
-----------------------
BOY Kill Boy are back. Following the gold-selling success of last year’s Civilian, the Essex quartet have returned with new album Stars And The Sea.
Now they’re heading up to Liverpool to play the Barfly and meet up with new best friend Ian McCulloch, who they met while touring America’s east coast with Echo & The Bunnymen.
“Me and Ian became good friends,” says singer Chris Peck. “When I saw Echo & The Bunnymen live it blew me away.
“They were the only band I’ve stood and watched every single night, from 50 different points. There ended up being an almost psychic connection between Ian and myself, me playing him our new album at 3 in the morning, and him playing me his.”
Boy Kill Boy – Chris plus Shaz (drums), Pete Carr (keyboards) and Kevin Chase (bass / vocals) – cite their influences as The Cure, Psychedelic Furs and, indeed, Echo & The Bunnymen.
Chris says: “I’ve always been a massive fan of albums like (The Cure’s) 17 Seconds, and a song like (Stars And The Sea’s) Kidda Kidda is directly inspired by those records, and our experiences with The Bunnymen.”
