(UK) GOTH METAL K.O.Kaine formed in the summer of 2002 from the ashes of underground favourites Freak K.O. Mik Crone and Matt Larkin teamed up with notorious vocalist Ad Philips and punk bass player Trevor 'leather' Nichols to form a glam sleaze industrial hardcore hybrid of a group. Fusing elements of different music into a furious movie like presence became the key to the future styling of the group. Style and substance both playing an important role. After releasing two well received self financed CDs the group set about finding a label to sell their 'Accelerator' MCD and Casket was the proud home for this release, and now the band follow that release with the full album "Play To Ghosts", which shows a more mature execution and diversity, straying from the electronic industrial sounds of old, for a more mixed and commercial rock hybrid, fusing everything now from Ministry to Motley Crue.
