Child Bite is an American punk/metal band[1] formed in 2005 in Detroit, Michigan. The band's core members are founding vocalist Shawn Knight[2][3] and longtime bassist Sean Clancy.[4] Child Bite's sound has been described as "enormous and predatory, from the baleful rhythm section to Shawn Knight's [frightening vocals]."[5][6][7]

In the spring of 2013, the band released a split 7-inch with David Yow of Jesus Lizard and Scratch Acid.[8] 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.[9][10]

As of 2024, Child Bite has toured the U.S. with such acts as Pantera,[11] Lamb of God,[12] Down,[13] Voivod,[14] Negative Approach,[15] Superjoint,[16] Poison Idea,[17] Unsane[18] and more.
