Chad Walls (aka CPT KILLDRUMS) began playing
drums out of his fascination with PETER CRISS of KISS. While in the High School
Band Program, and several different garage bands, he was able to put together
OUTCAST, an all-original metal project. OUTCAST recorded one 4 song demo
entitled "Atomic City Trash" and played dozens of local and regional
shows.
After High School, Chad
enrolled in the U.S. Army to help finance a music career, and a move to LA.
After 4 years in the Army and playing in several bands from a country group in Oklahoma,
to a rock cover band in Hawaii,
plus a short stint with the 77th Army Band in Ft. Sill OK. He went to LA
several times, and visited MIT (Musician's Institute
of Technology)
and decided LA wasn't right for him. He returned home to Tennessee
and quickly jumped back into the music scene, taking every job from classic
rock, to Top 40, country and western, and blues.
