Editor's note

Get Scared, the Utah post-hardcore band

A band that started with a childhood scare game and moved from heavy riffs to electronic textures.

For a quick sense of their range, listen to 'Cynical Skin' and 'Sarcasm.' They tell you most of what you need to know.

They carved out a spot in the 2010s post-hardcore scene with songs that balanced aggression and melody. 'Cynical Skin' from their later work shows how they kept evolving their sound. Their story isn't just about the music, it's got real-life twists, like the 2015 arrest that paused everything.

They formed in Layton, Utah in 2009 and released 'Best Kind of Mess' in 2011, featuring 'Sarcasm' with Craig Mabbitt. By 2019's 'The Dead Days,' they were experimenting with electronic elements, a shift from the heavier tone of 2013's 'Everyone's Out to Get Me.'

Archive material and source history

Get Scared formed in Layton, Utah in 2009, started by brothers Johnny B. on vocals and Nicholas Matthews on guitar. The name came from a childhood game where they'd try to scare their younger siblings. Their debut album 'Best Kind of Mess' came out in 2011, and the single 'Sarcasm' featuring Craig Mabbitt from Escape the Fate got them some attention in the post-hardcore scene.

They put out 'Everyone's Out to Get Me' in 2013, which leaned heavier, then 'Demons' in 2015 with more melody. By 2019's 'The Dead Days,' they were working with electronic sounds. Songs like 'Cynical Skin' and 'Don't You Dare Forget The Sun' show the range they covered over those years.

In 2015, Johnny B. was arrested on drug charges and the band took a break for a while. They've had other members come through including Bradley Skubic on rhythm guitar, Dan Juarez on bass, and Derek Marsh on drums.
