Child Bite is an American punk/metal band[1] formed in 2005 in Detroit, Michigan. The band's core members are founding vocalist Shawn Knight[2] and long-time bassist Sean Clancy.[3]
Their sound has been described as "enormous and predatory, from the baleful rhythm section to Shawn Knight's [frightening vocals]."[4] They are self-described and acknowledged by authorities in the genre as having a "horrorshow/slasher-flick" flair, which descriptions apply to their records, their album art and their music videos.[5] Their visual aesthetic is directed by their vocalist, Shawn Knight, who works professionally as a graphic artist.[6]
In the spring of 2013, Child Bite released a split 7-inch with David Yow of Jesus Lizard and Scratch Acid.[7]
"Morbid Hits," a collection of Anal Cunt cover songs, was released exclusively as a 5" vinyl record in early 2014 (via Housecore Records). This release featured the band being fronted by Pantera/Down frontman Phil Anselmo.[8][9]
As of 2018, Child Bite has toured the U.S. with such acts as Down,[10] Voivod,[11] Negative Approach,[12] Superjoint,[13] Poison Idea,[14] Unsane[15] and more.
