The Kills

About

The Kills are the epitome of raw, unfiltered rock ‘n’ roll, a duo that thrives on minimalism and maximal energy. Formed in 2000 by vocalist Alison Mosshart and guitarist Jamie Hince, the band emerged from the collision of their shared love for blues, punk, and garage rock. Their sound—gritty, seductive, and unapologetically visceral—feels like a late-night dive bar where danger and allure intertwine. Albums like *Keep On Your Mean Side* and *Midnight Boom* cemented their reputation as masters of stripped-down, high-voltage rock, while tracks like "Sour Cherry" and "Future Starts Slow" showcase their ability to blend swaggering riffs with Mosshart’s magnetic, howling vocals. The Kills’ live performances are legendary, a testament to their chemistry and raw power. Their evolution over the years has seen them experiment with electronic textures and darker atmospheres, as heard on *Ash & Ice*, without losing their signature edge. Collaborations with artists like Arctic Monkeys and Jack White have further solidified their place in the rock pantheon. Today, The Kills continue to push boundaries, their music a defiant reminder that rock ‘n’ roll is alive and kicking. With every release, they prove that sometimes, less is more—but it’s always unforgettable.
