Kunst

3. Kunst (Au) were formed in August of 2008 by guitarists Peter Mengede (Helmet/Handsome) and Dale Watkinson (Manzuma/PornFunk Revivalist Allstars) who are joined by Damian Burge (Bolus) on bass, Ross McLennan (Lovejoy/The GoBetweens) on drums and Jimmy Sky (Flowers for Lily/A name Will Come) on vocals.

Kunst combine their influences – which they cite as themselves, and everyone from Bob Mould to My Bloody Valentine – into a wall of dissonant melody that spans the gap between indie and metal, between retro and experimental, all packaged into rolling, head-nodding grooves. Their set ranges from high-energy to with an emphasis on assonant dissonance.
