History

Job for a Cowboy built their early reputation on a sound that helped define deathcore in the mid-2000s: breakdowns borrowed from hardcore, blast beats and tremolo riffs from death metal, and vocals that jumped from high shrieks to deep gutturals. The band formed in Arizona and spread almost entirely through the internet, as the Doom EP of 2005 circulated on MySpace and made them one of the first metal acts to break out that way. The track 'Entombment of a Machine' and its squealed low vocals became a reference point for a wave of younger bands. Genesis, their 2007 debut album on Metal Blade, kept the aggression but already leaned harder on death metal structure. Over the following records the group moved away from breakdowns toward technical death metal, and albums such as Ruination, Demonocracy and Sun Eater show that shift clearly. Vocalist Jonny Davy remained the constant voice. Listeners recognise the early material by its choppy grooves, stop-start riffs and the contrast between shrieks and pig-squeal lows.
