Biography
1) A progressive rock band from The Netherlands
2) A Noise rock/Punk band from Manchester (England)
3) A underground rap artist from America
4) A rock ‘n roll band from Karlskrona (Sweden)
5) A hardcore band from Raleigh (USA)
1) Kong is an experimental instrumental band from The Netherlands. They started out in 1988 as a side project for Amsterdam-based musicians Dirk DeVries (guitar, samples, programming), Aldo Sprenger (guitar), Mark Drillich (bass, programming), and Rob Smits (drums). Impossible to pigeonhole, their unscrupulous musical collage melds elements of heavy metal, progressive rock, electronica, and the avant-garde — all of it backed up by extensive sampling and quirky sound effects. Adding to their unconventional approach, their music is 99 percent instrumental, and conceived and performed quadraphonically, with each member of the group taking over a different corner of the venue for ideal sonic delivery. One of their former drummer, Rob Snijders, later played in Agua de Annique, Celestial Season and Garcia Plays Kyuss.
2) Kong are a band from Manchester, England. They contain members from Oceansize, Capulet and Fi-Lo Radio.

that awkward moment when you realise that it's a side-project of Oceansize. :D And I was already starting to think that the Kong's drum patterns are too fucking badass - well, damn, it's Mark Heron. :D

I saw them sat Live at Leeds and thought I was in a horror movie. They're still great.

Listening to Nih and hearing the words, "I'm going to stick my finger up your bum hole" whilst walking home from work, down a dark snicket around midnight is not a pleasant experience.

when I first saw them I thought that they weren't wearing masks and they had done something really weird to their faces, no idea why...
