Formed in 2007 by guitarist Rory Brattwell, following his stints in Test Icicles and RAT:ATT:AGG, KASMs are a post-punk four-piece based in Dalston.
Their sound has a dark melancholic intensity that's met with frantic high energy; kind of a goth-punk sound, with lead singer Rachel's vocals showing a hint of Siouxie Sioux. Their live shows are full of hurling-yourself-on-the-floor antics, making the band's harsh rhythmic songs sound all the more fun. In their own words, they describe their sound as 'shriekbeat'.
The band released their debut album 'Spayed' last year on Trouble Records, and it is up in full on their MySpace.
