The Kybosh combine dark post-punk tones with a progressive vision, constantly seeking out new influences to create fresh sounds.
In 2007 they released their first single, Rubicon, to critical acclaim from The Irish
Independent, Hot Press and The Evening Herald, gaining airplay on Phantom and Spin FM. They completed a national tour, supported The Blizzards, Hybrasil and Rough Trade Records’ 1990s, and performed at the Hard Working Class Heroes festival.
Tipped as one of the most promising bands of 2008 by John Meagher in The Irish
Independent, The Kybosh are working on their new mini-album which is due for release in October.
hey anthony, great craic down in mitchelstown alright - not sure if the old piggy-back around the dancefloor would go down so well with dublin bouncers though! will definitly do my best to get down to crawdaddy next week!
Sorry bout the group mail (despite your name being cunningly added into the first line. How did I do that?)
Anyways, stuck up some new recordings of songs we did in the album session in Electrical Audio. None of the songs are mastered yet and there are a couple of tweaks here and there to be done but I thought I"d stick em up so you could get a listen before the album is released.
I"m gonna rotate the songs on an as unyet decided basis (weekly, biweekly, triweekly even??) and include songs that didn"t make the final cut. Watch out for them...
The songs up now are There You Stand, This Is How We Play and Home.

Meh, my life consists of words and money at the moment...writing lots of words, and worrying lots about money! Oh well, luckily I'm only a student for a few more months, then I'm going to be moving into my own house! (rented, but hey, you can't have everything at once, you know?) You all keeping well then?
Aw, you lot got called "perfect" in your last comment... you know you've made it when... :-) Hope you're all well and have survived the Christmas exams...I'm trying (unsuccessfully as you may have gathered) to do my dissertation... 6,000 more words to go :(
