Driller Killer was a Swedish crust punk band.

They were formed in 1993 in Malmö[2] and are named after the Abel Ferrara film The Driller Killer.

Driller Killer was one of the first bands to implement death metal sound into a crust punk formula.

[9] The popularity of the crust punk and death metal fusion cemented when Osmose Productions created the Kron-H imprint for the main purpose of signing Driller Killer, Disfear, Loud Pipes and Dellamorte.

[9] While the tenure with Kron-H did not generate major financial success it gained praise from underground critics.
