History
The various members of Dangerkids were friends for many years before the band formed. Each played in other bands in Dayton, Ohio before deciding to form Dangerkids. Andy Bane stated in a 2014 interview that the band couldn't remember why they'd chosen their name, but that "we felt like it had sort of a hip hop element to it which seemed fitting for us."[1]
Their first single, "Hostage", arrived in July 2013. Dangerkids' debut album, Collapse, was released in 2013 to mixed reviews overall. Alternative Press compared the band favourably to Linkin Park, while other reviews were more measured with Sputnik Music describing it as "decent enough."[2]
In 2016 Dangerkids returned with "Things Could Be Different", the first single to be taken from their second album. This was followed by another single, "Kill Everything" in 2017, before the album's release later that year. Critics assessed 2017's _blacklist album as growing on the band's potential, with CrypticRock giving the album 4 out of 5 stars.[3] In 2017, vocalists of Dangerkids, Tyler Smyth and Andy Bane, performed the theme song for Infinite, for the video game Sonic Forces.[4] The track has since received over 10 million views on YouTube, their most-viewed.
