KAPUT

Together, Fox and Garofalo dismantle the rules, building something thrilling in its place, unbound and unapologetic. - Post-Punk

Kaput is a fresh experimental art rock act which lifts inspiration from the unconventional aspects of post punk and noise rock. - Destroy//Exist

A relentless rhythm punches forward, entangled with abrasive synths and a vocal delivery that’s more war cry than melody. - Post-Punk on "High Wire"

...with Garofalo’s vocals packing both the emotional punch of Karen O and the easy-going charm of Deborah Harry, the pop side shines also through, as the nods to post-punk and No Wave that run through the arrangement help bring out the darker tones of the lyrics. - Analogue Trash on "Runner"

KAPUT is a Chicago based Post Punk/No Wave project formed by Nadia Garofalo (Heavy Feelings, formerly of Ganser), producer and engineer Brian Fox (Electrical Audio), and M. Sord (Jon Spencer and the Hitmakers).

 Heavily influenced by iconic artists like Kim Gordon, Brainiac, and This Heat, KAPUT explode out of the gate on their first full length outing, aptly titled One. Experimental and bold, they challenge and push the boundaries of modern music.

 Their new album is the culmination of over a year of collaborative writing examining anger in all of its forms including a bit of humor. From the quiet introspection of “Teal” to the addictive frenzy of “Sucker”, KAPUT dissects and disrupts, caresses and punishes.

 “I think we live in a world that (especially if you’re feminine) tells you to hide or ignore your anger, I wanted to explore its facets, it’s not always negative, sometimes it can show you things, it can teach you so much if you listen.” - Nadia Garofalo
