KiEw (band)

KiEw is a German electro-industrial project founded in late 1990 by Andreas "Thedi" Thedens.

History

KiEw began with avant-garde and dada-industrial sound experiments and later changed to more rhythmic power electro-industrial/power noise upon the release of Feierabend in 2000. The band uses a lot of break beat, techno elements, and voice samples from movies and audio books, among other sources. The band has been signed to "Out of Line Music" since 2000. The main themes of the music are insanity, schizophrenia, paranoia, and therapy.
