When they first formed in Melbourne in 2004, Behind Crimson Eyes was typical of the Australian emo scene, sometimes jokingly referred to as "emu," but over time, and with lineup changes including the addition of second guitarist Kevin Orr, they began to mature and move closer to a hard rock sound. Singer Josh Stuart added screaming to his vocal tricks, Cameron Gilmour appropriated the double-kick drums of metalcore, and Aaron Schultz's guitar and Garth Buchanan's bass rounded out their sound.Carrying a camera with them from their first gig on, Behind Crimson Eyes -- BCE to their fans -- documented six months of their early career, which they edited down into a DVD released with their debut EP.
