With a band name like this you just don’t know what to expect, which would be lot easier if you call your band Death or anything. But all jokes aside it all makes this much more of an adventure. First thing I noticed was that this band has got three guitarplayers. That will explain the hard and overwhelming music this Arizona based band makes. And if there is one term this band uses in their bio which I can totally rely to it has got to be: INTENSE. Hardcore and metal are brought to you with great fury and aggression. Oh, man I didn’t know what to expect when I popped this 4 song demo in my cd player, but if I would say that they are in between Converge and Acme, I still might miss out on describing their real power. The band seem to be working hard on exploring the uncharted territories both musical and lyrical (with a socio – political foundation). To my opinion this band will make themselves heard in the years to come. Formed in April 2002, the Kyds now seem to have a steady line up, and that is the time when they should start flirting with different labels. Anyone with ears would be nuts not to give them a chance.
