Through a strange telepathic connection, Matt Howze met Kevin
Litrow in 1999. It was a cold stormy night in California. A few
nights before, Kevin was seduced by pulsating repeating rythms in
a dream. The words "brain beat" kept appearing in bright colors,
which then would slowly transform into the words "body beat." He
didn't wake up in a frenzy. Instead he awoke with the big
question, "What the fuck does "body beat" mean?" The following day
he was so weirded out he decided to go have his dreams interpreted
by a dream specialist. When he arrived, there was a line with a 45
minute wait out the door. He sat quietly, thinking about last
night's rhythms wondering why they are effecting him. He then
began to choke on cigarette smoke. The smoke came from a tall and
slender gentleman across the room. The gentleman was wearing a
plain white shirt, with black slacks and ripped converse. He was
trembling and smoking cigarette after cigarette. A concerned woman
walked up to this man and asked him if he was alright. "I can't
stop thinking about those drones," he said to the woman. "These
repetative drones have been seducing my mind for the past five
nights straight. They're like bright colored lasers that keep
shooting at my head and I fight these drones by hitting them like
a drum." After hearing this Kevin knew he had to confront this
gentleman. He walked over and introduced himself and learned that
this gentleman's name was Matt Howze. They conversed about music,
dreams, drones, rhythms, oscillations, keyboards, gutars and
bands. They both decided that the line was a waste of time and
left to go get coffee.

KILL ME TOMORROW produce what you might call "noir wave": a sort
of new wave/no wave, gothic-tinged, industrial, electro-post punk.
Although often compared to classic bands like JOY DIVISION, THE
FALL and SONIC YOUTH, KILL ME TOMORROW have frequently been lauded
by critics for their hyper-futuristic, experimental approach to
composition and style, influenced by dub, hip-hop and noise as
well as the sparcest elements of pop. They've toured with THE
BLACKHEART PROCESSION and THE LOCUST, among others, and headlined
the 2003 GSL West Coast Tour and CMJ show in October. Their 2001
EP on Silver Girl Records featured remixes by Pall Jenkins (THE
BLACKHEART PROCESSION) among others, whetting the appetites of
critics and new listeners alike with the band's raw, art-damaged
brand of electropunk. (goldstandardlabs.com)
