Who are we?

Kill the Captains came to be in 2006 as a rough-hewn psychedelic jam band - downright nasty by all accounts. Slowly but surely as four buxom comrades, we refined our drones into the energetic pop bullets that exhibited our shared love of 1990s American Alternative music, Shoegaze and Krautrock.

Since forming, we have been relentlessly gigging in and around our native homeland and have such developed into a ferocious live act with a burgeoning reputation in Sheffield and beyond. We host our own popular bi-monthly club-night, ‘Mutiny’ in the city. People have compared us to Sonic Youth, Animal Collective and Les Savy Fav to name but a few, to that list we add Pavement, My Bloody Valentine, Slint, Pere Ubu, Television, Can and Neu amongst the many influences. Hopefully you’ll get the gist of what it’s all about and get onboard.
