The band formed in 2008, after the four members, Nicholas Matthews (lead vocals), Johnny Braddock (lead guitar/backing vocals), Bradley Iverson (bass guitar/backing vocals) and Warren Wilcock (drums/percussion, who were previously in separate bands, decided to form a new group. They released their first EP, "Cheap Tricks and Theatrics" independently in 2009. Their first single, "If Only She Knew Voodoo Like I Do," became a popular track, receiving a lot of play on the internet, garnering the attention of Universal Motown Records. Wilcock was replaced on the drums by Daniel Juarez prior to the album release.
In 2011, the band released their debut album, "Best Kind Of Mess," through Universal Motown Records, which featured the songs, "Sarcasm" and "Voodoo." The album faired well in the charts, reaching a peak position of number 21 in the US Top Heatseekers Chart. In support of the album, Get Scared then embarked on a number of tours, including "The Dead Masquerade Tour," alongside Escape the Fate, Alessana and Motionless in White. They also supported Aiden, along with Eyes Set To Kill and Dr. Acula on a nationwide tour.
Following this bout of tours, Get Scared went through a series of changes at the end of 2011, with lead vocalist Matthews leaving the band in November. After this, they took a break from touring in the pursuit to find anew vocalist. Eventually they decided upon Dead Chandelier singer Joel Faviere as Matthews' replacement. As well as Faviere, they also welcomed a new guitarist, Adam Virostko, joining the band in September 2012. With this new lineup, they embarked on "The Pizza Party Tour" with Dead Rabbits. Virostko became a permanent member of the band but Faviere's time was to be short lived, with Matthews returning in November 2012, with only one EP, "Built for Blame, Laced WIth Shame" being recorded with Faviere.
Get Scared also signed with a new label, joining Fearless Records in June 2013. The band then returned to the studio to record their second full-length, which was released in November 2013. The album was titled "Everyone's Out To Get Me," with the lead single being the track, "Told Ya So." The album debuted at number one on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, selling 3,000 copies within its first week.
Avis
Get Scared is a hardcore punk rock type of band that formed in 2008. They sound very apocalyptic which is awesome, in fact that’s my favorite thing about them.
They know how to delight and hypnotize their audience who love them very much. I would say the audience almost worships these guys and with good reason. They are very deserving of their fans worship and they are cool to the extreme.
The band itself is extreme in every way! Their lyrics are extreme, their dress is extreme, there singing is extreme, but that is what makes them great.They don’t do anything without going all the way into it. If they want the audience to sing with them, they will let them know in the most hardcore ways, screaming and yelling it, but would you expect anything less from a band called Get Scared…
Despite their tough attitude they seem to genuinely love and appreciate their fans. They will often tell their fans how grateful they are for them, of course they do it in a hard core way, but you can tell they really mean it. They have a tough shell but inside they are soft and definitely tasty. Give them a try!
I knew when I heard about Get Scared having a concert, I was destined to go. I absolutely loved the concert. I was literally within a few feet of the band when they performed on stage. After Get Scared got off stage, my friend and I were even able to get pictures with the band memebers.
As this being my first concert, I fully enjoyed myself and I definitely want to see them in concert again in the near future!
