Biography
Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza are a hardcore/metal band from Philadelphia. Although never gaining an impressive amount of popularity, Bad Luck 13 (as they're commonly nicknamed) were notorious for their live shows; to quote their Resurrection A.D. Records page: "Unlike anything you would see in even your most terrifying nightmare, a typical Bad Luck 13 performance was composed mainly of a whole lot of wrestling, blood, and mayhem. The band’s skull-crushing set was not for the weak of stomach, but was any pyromaniac’s dream. While beating the living pulp out of their fellow band mates with blunt objects such as trash cans, ladders, and various other torture devices of the like, the band was also notorious for fire-breathing and other arsonist stunts."
The group initially disbanded after their infamous performance at Hellfest 2004 in New Jersey, which was set to be their last show ever. Following this, several members would go on to form other projects such as Eat the Turnbuckle and The Dead Meat. In 2011, the Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza reformed for a small run of shows and have remained active playing occasional shows since.
