Biography

K-X-P is a rock trio consisting of Timo Kaukolampi and Tuomo Puranen of Op:l Bastards fame and Anssi Nykänen, a weathered session drummer. The main reference of their hypnotic music is krautrock from 40 years back, but they do throw in a few afrobeat rhythms, ominously cinematic keyboard sound walls, hippy Middle Eastern melodies and some dancey pulse. Kaukolampi’s idiosyncratic singing style has been sorely missed, although it comes only in small doses this time. Here and there you can also make out the distant breathy vocals of Norwegian pop princess Annie.

    For some strange reason I like their album. "Melody" is awesome.

    Can't believe this group hasn't picked up more fans. Self-titled is really solid, and "18 Hours (of Love)" is one of the best glam rock songs I've heard in ages.

    I love Pockets with Annie's vocals. Make's it a special song, mostly because I am addicted to her voice.
