We could, we could crash--A Tribute to The Kills

Since I posted so much yesterday and I'll be working on more tonight, I decided to showcase one of my favorite bands today. They are not well-known here in the States and they really deserve to be. The Kills consist of two vocalists/guitarists, named Alison Mosshart (nickname VV) and Jamie Hince (nickname Hotel). Alison Mosshart is currently in another fantastic band with Jack White called The Dead Weather, but she still works with Hince regularly. Hince is engaged to Kate Moss...despite what people think, he and Mosshart are not an item. They are good friends who have been performing music since 2002. Their biggest single is "URA Fever," which has been in a few movies. Yet they remain pretty underground over here (they're a London based band). They're influenced by Patti Smith, Frank Zappa, and the Velvet Underground. The Kills also dabble in art and photography, which I'm showing here. Enjoy!













I pulled those photos from their official website and facebook. Here is a great video of them performing live. This is one of their better known songs.
