Deadguy is an American metalcore band from New Brunswick, New Jersey. The band formed in 1994 and disbanded in 1997. Deadguy is considered to have played an important role in the development of the mathcore genre.[2] Their sole studio album Fixation on a Co-Worker is cited as a classic within the genre by some.[3] In 2006, Decibel magazine included the album in its "Hall of Fame" list.[4] Deadguy has been cited as an influence by such bands as the Dillinger Escape Plan and Jeromes Dream.[5][6]

It was a combination of a lot of death metal bands, cause we were into the extreme. Morbid Angel, Carcass, Death, things like that… And then, there were some hardcore stuff we were listening to, bands like Dead Guy, who are heavily influenced by Black Flag and stuff like that, who, when we were younger, they were a newer band…

The three of us as a band listened to all different types of music, a lot of which wasn't heavy. Some stuff was on the more avant garde side: Hurl, Don Cab and 1.6 Band. It was a weird melding of that with bands like Bloodlet, Deadguy and other traditional hardcore stuff.
