Interview With Kissy Kamikaze
Posted on January 14th, 2008 by Costa
Raw, dirty, straight-up. A shot of vodka or Kissy Kamikaze? Who knows. Either way, this New York punk band, including scene veterans Andy Shaw (formerly of INDK, Morning Glory) and Tibbie X (formerly of the X-Possibles), are ready to kick ass and not even bother with taking names afterwords. That’s cause names are for suckers.
The band were recently nice enough to take some time and answer my annoying fanboy questions about punk rock in NY.
So when and how did Kissy Kamikaze come together?
Tibbie X : I took some time off after X-Possibles broke up and then decided ‘ok, I gotta have an awesome band again.’ Posted on Craigslist. Suzy posted something about looking for a female singer and I was looking for female punk guitarist. Carrie is the only non-suckass female drummer I know in NYC so I Internet stalked her. Andy was a gift from Carrie.
Suzy: I realized I knew Tibbie, or at least knew of her ‘cause our old bands played a show together once.’ So it was less of a strangers hooking up thing.
