Alternative metal veterans Kitshickers stream new album 'The Boarwin Hunt'
...For the record...
What began as a grunge quartet in Luxembourg/Europe in 1997, evolved over the years (and a slight line-up change of the rhythm section in 2005) to a reference in their region as a ferocious sounding post-rock, post-apocalyptic, metal-ish, even doom-ish band, that manages to reinvent itself constantly.
From concept albums to concept shows, including special headphone live shows with video projection, or live art performances.... And in November 2016, they announced again a big change as they hired a lead singer, in the person of Yann Dalscheid (former lead vocalist of “An Apple A Day”). In 2019, Kitshickers started a side project together with "The Majestic Unicorns from Hell", a local band with which they created a kind of a supergroup, composed of 5 guitarists, 2 drums, 2 basses, 3 songs and with whom they released a split EP.
In 2020 Kitshickers created the “Kitshickers Collective asbl” regrouping musicians, light designers, sound designers and video designers - which in 2021 led to the project 49.5041°N, 5.9879°E, the sequel to the 2019 supergroup show – this time though with a 360° Video Projection with a live performance by actors and dancers synced to the video projection. Several tours around Europe, 7 full length albums confirm their dedication to their music.
Their music may not be easily accessible to everyone but who can lie back, can let the music work und is not caught in the simplicity of the mainstream, discovers a new world - the sound galaxy of the Kitshickers.
In 2022 Nelson Curado decided to part ways with Kitshickers and has been replaced by Thierry Didelot (former bassist of The Majestic Unicorns from Hell). The band decided also to opt for a 3rd guitarist in the person of Raphael De La Croix (former guitarist of TMUFH, Kaiju Ultra...)
