Their first album, 'Dua Sisi', demonstrates the band's beginnings as a leaning towards a predominantly 'Hardcore Metal' and was well received within the underground metal community. With their second album 'Berkarat' and their most recent 'Beyond Coma and Despair' Burgerkill have found their foot-hole and developed a style of their own. Burgerkill set the standard for live metal performances in Indonesia, and have always been a clear cut above the rest. What you hear on the album is what you get live - no disappointments. Their style and level of performance are incomparable to anything previously seen or heard in Indonesia. Burgerkill have become veterans of the metal stage as they are regularly supporting International metal acts touring Indonesia such as The Black Dahlia Murder, As I Lay Dying, and Himsa.

Burgerkill is a dynamic composition of talented musicians who have all individually featured as prominent influences within Indonesia's underground metal milieu. With Vicky on vocals, Ebenz on guitar, Ramdan on bass, Andris on drums, and Agung on guitar, the result is a lethal combination of musicians who, as if by instinct, produce a most rancorous sound that leaves you feeling downright butchered. Self produced and Burgerkill's most recent album, 'Beyond Coma and Despair' has been tagged by Rolling Stone Magazine as 'One of the best albums of the year' (2006).
