Powerful, anthemic and hard-hitting, THE UNICORN MURDERS is an emerging hard rock band quickly gaining the attention of fans of bands like Alice In Chains, Tool, Filter and Soundgarden. Striking a balance between hard rocking and thought provoking, THE UNICORN MURDERS aim to connect with people’s hearts and minds.

Formed in the fall of 2010, the band quickly went to work writing and demoing material at Cherry Beach Studios in Toronto. Within a few months they had compiled enough material for an album. In July 2011, THE UNICORN MURDERS began recording their debut album with producer Mike Turner (Crash Karma and ex-guitarist for Our Lady Peace) at The Pocket Studios in Toronto. Juno award winner Mark Makoway is handling mix duties.
