Kill Committee
Statement / 01
The futures we imagined. The present we inherited.
Introduction
Kill Committee make music shaped as much by the records we grew up with and still love as by the world we find ourselves living in. The influences are intentional, familiar sounds refracted through four different perspectives, experiences and personalities, becoming something of our own.
Our songs reflect the passing of time, the optimism of futures once imagined, the erosion of familiar certainties and the uneasy return of ideas we thought we’d left behind. Personal and collective histories overlap, just as the music of our past continues to colour the present.
We’re not trying to escape our influences, or recreate another era. We’re making music that sounds like us, from the things that made us who we are.
