Ticket to Death is the debut album from Wisconsin based heavy metal band Killstrap. Ticket to Death is an 8 song collection of metal madness touching on the darker elements of the human collective; greed, destruction, death and the like.

Heavy driving guitars are provided by Kris Fox [Tenezmus, Heilzaam, Snitchler, The microns],and the punishing rhythmic thunder comes from the D.C. progressive music scene drummer and author Paul Sears [The Muffins, Manna Mirage, Cloud Over Jupiter].

( William Jungwirth was originally slated to play the skins but was caught up in a bizarre "free piano" internet incident at the time of recording. )

The majority of the lyrics are courtesy of Fox, although Sass [Heilzaam, Snitchler, Boot to the Head] provided creative story lines and some lyric insanity for a number of tracks, notably, Killstrap, Throat Punch, Choke Slammed Again, and Devil's Cross).

This album is dedicated to the super-fans/ friends who continually encourage the art ( you know who you are), the independent musicians/ artists who push through day after day to make and share their art, and the dedicated men and women (and their families) who serve and have served in the Armed Forces of the United States of America.
