Sounds Like
The sounds cross back and forth through a number of genres, some known and some less so: punk, hip hop, atom-powered folk-pop, haunted garage, restless singer songwright, epic soul shock, noise exp., blurred-eye visionary psychedelica, roadhouse mod and the silent film soundtracks.
In describing to a friend, you might say: Hit the streets to the motorbike beat of the cranked and crush crashpop. Raise the standard and hail: a revolution come and gone behind your eyes. Blood and sand and sidewalk. Radio blast the punk pop implosion that is the new breed: a bee in your bonnet, love in a goldfish bowl, zombie rockin behind the iron curtain. Hey, love rocker, pull on your slacks and Mexican army boots, get ready for some sonic pogo action. Jazz the glass, here they come, screaming and clawing, scooters and dune buggies roaring. Bless. Can you dig it? Collaborators. King loser and teenage underground. Screech and saw. Buzz. Cut. Spin. Slice. Crush. Squirt. Sweaty basement rock and rule. A crown of barbed wire for your hooded throne. Lose it on the ball and chain. Hey gravedigger; ignite.
K as not just a record label but as a place where artists find a community.
A central part of the record label is its collaborative aspect. Every one of our active bands has in some way been a part of or working with another K band. While all of the bands are creating distinctively different music they continually work together and derive creative input and inspiration form one another. The result is a unique environment for all of the artists where the creative outlet can be seen or rather heard in so many ways. While it is not uncommon for band members to have solo projects or collaborate with other artists, there has yet to be so much interaction within one label of so many artists.
The interaction that happens in the creation stages of the music also manifests itself in live performances. Perhaps because of the artists' familiarity with recruiting those around them, audience members often find themselves in the band for an evening or even be asked to perform a solo. Although many of the artists tour solo they are rarely alone in a performance
