About

THE KILLS IN CONCERT:
Ā 
Indie duo The Kills let fans know what theyƭre all about from the second they take the stage clad in leather jackets: theyƭre ready to kick out their lo-fi tunes with a dangerous edge and tons of rock ƫnƭ roll swagger. Sneering frontwoman Alison Mosshart oozes pure mojo as she pounds out power chords and whispers her seductive vocals into the microphone. Guitarist Jamie Hince jumps in to deliver cutting lead lines while dancing around and conjuring bizarre sound effects from his overdriven amplifiers. They combine these hard-hitting elements with robotic drum machines to drive explosive rockers like ƬNo WowƮ and ƬTape SongƮ with an insistent groove. But they can also slow the tempo on ballads like ƬBlack BalloonƮ and ƬRodeo TownƮ to add a melancholy bent without losing their riveting edge. In either case, each rough-and-tumble gem The Kills play on stage will leave ticket buyers breathless and begging for more.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Ā 
Singer/guitarist Alison Mosshart first caught guitarist Jamie Hince playing a solo show when she was touring England in 2000 with her Florida-based punk band Discount. The two traded ideas through the mail for a couple years before Mosshart relocated to London in 2002 and the duo released their debut EP Black Rooster. The Kills built on the EPĆ­s success the following year with their first full-length album Keep on Your Mean Side. The unique lo-fi sound of the group caught the attention of The Raconteurs frontman Jack White, who invited them on tour. The increased exposure helped them become indie darlings with the release of critically adored albums like No Wow (2005) and Midnight Boom (2008). Both members continue to split their time between The Kills and side projects, such as MosshartĆ­s collaboration with Jack White in The Dead Weather. But fans remain eager to see what thrilling new sounds The Kills cook up both at their raucous live shows and on their highly anticipated fifth album.

    by McBean03 on 3/19/24Fox Theater - Oakland - OaklandRating: 5 out of 5

    This is my 5th time seeing The Kills over the years and they never disappoint! One of my all time favorite groups! They played a amazing set with many songs from their latest album god games we had a great time! Opening band Heartworms was also amazing live and has a very bright future! Rock on!

    They were absolutely incredible! So much energy, power & passion! Alison leaves it all on that stage…never disappoints! So great to see them again!

  • Went for Heartworms

    by Lucky on 3/19/24Fox Theater - Oakland - OaklandRating: 4 out of 5

    We went for Heartworms, who were better than expected. They were *way* too loud, but that’s just shows these days. Kills were great, but we only stayed a few songs.

  • The Kills are really bad live

    by Not a Kills fan on 3/18/24Ace of Spades - SacramentoRating: 1 out of 5

    I did not like it. Too much distortion for me that drowned out the leads singer's vocals. I'm not into garage rock. Every song sounded like he same.

  • Horrible Sound

    by Myoceansoul on 3/17/24The Wiltern - Los AngelesRating: 1 out of 5

    Wiltern is iconic LA treasure but sound quality for The Kills was very distorted and Muddy. So distorted Allison singing sounded horrible except for really low volume chill trackssongs like Black Balloon. Like The Kills added some backup singers but sound was still so horrible the quality was lost in the mix

  • The Kills at the Wiltern

    by Joey Mccrystal on 3/17/24The Wiltern - Los AngelesRating: 5 out of 5

    The Kills are the coolest band I have ever seen live. It was a blast. The Wiltern is a magical theater being built in the 30s, and I can’t wait to return. The opening band was a lot of fun too (never got their name). I have to see The Kills again and can’t wait for it. They are truly an underrated band that does Not get the recognition they deserve. They have influenced so many people and changed the sound of music. There is no body like them.
