History

Sochetra Pic, Sok Vichey, Ouch Theara and Ouch Hing were all born in a landfill in Khan Mean Chey, Phnom Penh, where they collected refuse to make a living.[2] When the boys reached their adolescence, their families could no longer provide for them, so Pic, Vichey, Theara and Hing were placed in the care of a local NGO, Moms Against Poverty. The director of the NGO, Timon Seibel introduced them to bands such as Slipknot and Rage Against the Machine and took them to a local concert of the Cambodian deathcore band Sliten6ix, which inspired the boys to start playing music; they formed a band a year later.[3]

In 2018, Doch Chkae were invited to perform at Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, but their visa application was rejected.[4] A petition calling the authorities to grant the band the visa was launched and signed by more than 10,000 people. Doch Chkae played at Wacken Open Air the following year.[5][6]

On 9 January 2020, the band performed at the "Year End Party: Dear Agony" in Lela Saigon Bar, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. On 13 March, Doch Chkae released a 3-song EP "Worse than Dogs".[7] In 2021, the band released the song "Tortured" (Шаблон:Lang).[8]

They were nominated 'Breakthrough Asian Band' at the 2021 Global Metal Apocalypse awards, and finished 10th.[9]
