A fearlessly free-spirited collective from Atlanta, Georgia, The

Callous Daoboys revels in high-strung extremity, careening

from furious metal cacophony to unabashed rock 'n roll and

back again. The band Kerrang! Hails as "gloriously chaotic" is

like a Molotov cocktail combining extreme metal and nü-metal

with life-affirming glee, as each song deliriously swerves across

stylistic lines.

Celebrated by SPIN, Fader, Revolver, Brooklyn Vegan, and New

Noise (who praised the band as "innovative, unflinching, brazen"),

The Callous Daoboys have turned heads on raucous tours with

TesseracT, Protest The Hero, and SeeYouSpaceCowboy, and

at prestigious international metal festivals. Celebrity Therapist

(2022) more than delivered on the promise of the band's early

rumblings. I Don't Want to See You in Heaven (2025) ups the

ante on every conceivable level.

Musically, every side of the band is also explored, with dizzyingly

venomous results. Songs like "Distracted by the Mona Lisa,"

"Lemon," "The Demon of Unreality Limping Like a Dog," and

"Two-Headed Trout" run the gamut between frenzied metalcore

assault and rock n' roll abandon.
