Child Bite

The band's core members are founding vocalist Shawn Knight and longtime bassist Sean Clancy. Child Bite's sound has been described as "enormous and predatory, from the baleful rhythm section to Shawn Knight's [frightening vocals]."

In the spring of 2013, the band released a split 7-inch with David Yow of Jesus Lizard and Scratch Acid. Morbid Hits, a collection of Anal Cunt cover songs, was released exclusively as a 5-inch vinyl record in early 2014 via Housecore Records. This release featured the band being fronted by Pantera/Down frontman Phil Anselmo.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Child Bite collaborated with Black Tusk on cover versions of Prong's "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" and Butthole Surfers' "Who Was in My Room Last Night?" The latter features vocals from actor Bill Moseley, who appears in the music video.

As of 2024, Child Bite has toured the U.S. with such acts as Pantera, Lamb of God, Down, Voivod, Negative Approach, Superjoint, Poison Idea, Unsane, and Black Tusk.
