Former I Killed the Prom Queen drummer JJ Peters founded Deez Nuts in Melbourne, Australia, in 2007, taking the band's name from a Dr. Dre song. Equally influenced by hardcore punk and hip-hop, the group's lyrics focused on partying as well as hustling, and the group's 2008 debut album, Stay True, appropriately contained a cover of Beastie Boys' "Fight for Your Right." The group spent much of 2008 touring Australia and Europe, and the sophomore full-length This One's for You appeared in 2010. Deez Nuts' third album, Bout It, was released in 2013, featuring numerous guest appearances from across the hardcore scene, including members of Architects, Madball, and Suicide Silence. Their fourth album, Word Is Bond, followed in 2015, featuring more introspective, less party-centric lyrics than previous efforts. The group's fifth studio long-player, 2017's Binge & Purgatory, featured the singles "Commas & Zeroes," "Discord," and "Purgatory." Two years later, the album You Got Me F****d Up featured heightened production values and integrated driving heaviness with bouncy pop hooks. ~ Paul Simpson
