Get Scared formed in Layton, Utah in 2008, carving a niche in the post-hardcore scene with horror-themed imagery and a sound that oscillates between gothic rock atmospherics and explosive metalcore aggression. Vocalist Nick Matthews brought a theatrical darkness to albums like 'Demons' and 'Dgd,' channeling the eerie side of the Warped Tour scene. Their willingness to embrace macabre themes and cinematic production set them apart from their more straightforward post-hardcore contemporaries.
