Bio
Sinners, come worship at the altar of KeN!
THE GODS OF ROCK ARE FEMALE!!!!
KeN is a unique blend of musical styles and influences created by an uncommon assembly of musicians. Their common goal is a raw natural desire to kick some rock and roll ass. Influenced by waning moons, booze, the concept that music is math, and the urban Philadelphia shadows, KeN channels the grit and spit to shape their song concepts in the cauldron of their original brand of rock.
KeN's long hallowed history has included shows with such greats as the Psychedelic Furs, Mike Watt, Alice Donut, The Makers, Scrawl, Jenny Toomey, Kimya Dawson, Burning Brides, Capitol City Dusters, Ida, Kabochak, and Ben Folds Five. The unique brand of KeN rock has been described as "sweetly bitter punk love anthems" (Jill McDowell, Philadelphia Weekly); "estro-gin power collective" (Joey Sweeney, Philadelphia Weekly); "straight-up-shoot-from-the-hip-rock-outfit" (Julie Gerstein, Philadelphia Weekly); "a strange world where everything sounds fine and its OK to fly off the handle" (Eric Wareheim, Rockpile); and "Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! With a capital A, A, A!!" (Alex Baker, artist, skate punk and Philly man-about-town).

The working title of our new record is "Silky Smooth Destruction".
The recording went very well considering we spent only 2.5 days. 1935 is fabulous! I recommend them highly: http://www.nineteenthirtyfive.com/
I am so proud of this record that I want to post all 8 songs now! But, they do need mixing.
So, do you think posting a ruff mix of one song is bad luck?
