54: Boy Kill Boy - From Banksy's role in their formation, and a surreal Top of the Pops appearance, to recording in LA after a rapid rise

<div>This week on <strong>The Boys in the Band Podcast </strong>we're joined by all four members of <strong>Boy Kill Boy </strong>to hear their story - and there are a lot of laughs along the way! <br> <br> The band had to fend of accusations they were manufactured such was their rapid rise but they tell us about the hard work that went in before their big break - and the surprising role mystery graffiti artist Banksy played in their formation!<br> <br> From playing on the penultimate Top of the Pops to having Suzie - and the lyric 'countdown to the disappointment' -soundtrack yet another early England football team World Cup exit, the Boy Kill Boy sound was everywhere in the 00s. <br> <br> We hear the highs and the lows of that journey, including sun-drenched and food-feasting recording sessions in LA, and spine-tingling festival shows. <br> <br> </div> <div> <strong>Boy Kill Boy fan?
