A Bullet For Pretty Boy was a post-hardcore/metalcore band from Longview/Dallas, Texas, United States. Formed by several close friends in 2006, the band decided to name themselves after infamous bank robber Charles "Pretty Boy" Floyd. Playing shows in 2007 and 2008 releasing their first EP Beauty In The Eyes Of The Beholder, with some solid experience at their back, and clear road before them, A Bullet for Pretty Boy finally felt like a complete set. They've poured all their energy into the project and absolutely love writing, recording and especially performing their music. "We've had our struggles in the past, what band hasn't?" says guitarist Derrick Sechrist, "But every time we get up on that stage and feel the energy of the crowd, we know we're doing something special. That energy, that's our fuel, that's what drives us to excel." And they are making it happen, releasing a demo titled "Only Time Will Tell" the summer of 2008, followed quickly by another demo "I Will Destroy the Wisdom of the Wise" in October and “ Windows“ in July 2009. Individually influenced anywhere from metal, progressive, to indie, the band members opposing ideas and influences conflict until a happy medium and powerful, unique mix is created. The foundation is layed out by guitarist Derrick Sechrist, drummer Josh Trammel, and bassist Bryan Bingham creating the easy-flowing changes and stop and start breakdowns that could make anyone want to get up and move. At the same time guitarist Chris Johnston and keyboardist Josh Modisette make the progressive ambience most commonly found in indie but instead being mixed into a world of hardcore breakdowns and catchy choruses. All topped off with vocals that would cause most people’s throat to bleed by front man, Danon Saylor. A Bullet for Pretty Boy's sound is unlike anything in the hardcore scene today balancing opposing musical elements to perfection. ABFPB was signed to Artery Recordings (distributed through Razor & Tie) in December 2009 and released a full length album later in 2010 called Revision:Revise. The album was produced by Cameron Mizell at Chango Studios. The band went on countless tours and one they did the months before release of their album was touring in May and June 2010 on the Welcome to the Circus Tour with Asking Alexandria, We Came As Romans, From First To Last, and Our Last Night. Also promoting their album on the No Rain, No Rainbow tour with Greeley Estates, Vanna and Tides Of Man. In 2012 the band released their last album Symbiosis.
