The Kind That Kills is a hardcore outfit residing in Stockholm, Sweden with a motive to renew and take their particular blend of modern American hardcore with a Swedish soul past the obvious clichés of today’s scene.
Born from previous well-established common projects first and foremost between Pär (ex 8 Days of Nothing) on guitar, drummer Per (ex Second Thought, Bruce Banner), and guitarist Stefan (ex Second Thought), The Kind That Kills found its true form in 2004. The final line-up harbors Peter (Between Us) on vocals and Kalle (ex Bad News) on bass. This exceptional five-piece manages not only to overcome some of the most monumental hardcore platitudes in their lyrics but also mediate a truly touching contemporary affect. The heartfelt vocals delivered with an alarming sense of urgency transcends the entrapment of legacy as this bands continuously walks in the footsteps of the more heartfelt and honest contemporary punk/hardcore acts. With the release of their debut self-titled EP scheduled for November 22nd 2006 on Dead Vibrations, Soulcity and Monument, The Kind That Kills set out to change the way we view Swedish hardcore forever. |
