The first release “Kunst ist Krieg (=art is war)” and it’s club hit “BoomBoomBoom” instantly conquer the dancefloors and earn the band a slot on the soundtrack of the American block-buster movie SAW 4.)

This is a pair, heavily influenced by the 80s, whose parts bring each cohesive element to the table at different times; two parts of one, they are a careful gestalt that synthesizes.)

KANT KINO inject the distorted force of the 90's dark elektro genre into their strong 80's EBM roots to render dark body music with distorted vocals and a strong sense for melody. Have you ever dared to have the forbidden thought of hearing a fresh combination of HOCICO or WUMPSCUT’s distorted darkness with the melodic EBM side of classic acts like NITZER EBB or LEAETHER STRIP? Expect EBM with the Norwegian seal of quality!)

The music expressed by this German project (based in Berlin) matches the description; it is anthem like, warrior like through concept and through message.)
