Why this name?
our name was chosen for us by Bruce Lee's lusting, sinful ghost...
Do you play live?
you can catch us live in NY often @ CBGB's, Pianos, Sin-e, knitting factory, The Delancey, arlene grocery, LIT, continental, Trash, acme underground, pyramid,...or in DC @ the black cat, velvet lounge, iota...and philly. and baltimore...YES. of course we love to play live! when a song becomes that vehicle
which drives you...it's us and you (the audience) crouched tightly together in the backseat of a humming galaxy 500 of a rock song, cruising to the edge of a smash up endorphin rush...hmmm, sometimes it's just sleazy rocknroll i suppose. good times!

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
easy access to the masses.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
i think so.
Band History:
we're devil spawned, rocknroll nightmares.
we met @ funkadelic studios in manhattan.
recorded a demo @ smash studios and got really good response from everywhere we sent it...
so, all the shows started coming in and we stay pretty busy...since day one we've been interested in expressing a feeling through music. could be as simple as a crush or a cool breeze on the hot street...or maybe the feeling is as abstract as an absolute resignation to cravings. often decadent. often like a dream sequence delivered from a cozy,brave new world. but when it comes down to it,
we all just love to bang out reckless rocknroll!

Your influences?
yeah, KUNG FURY is about manic, fuzz guitars and sweaty release. primitive beats. it's about freeing yourself from the grip of small people. it's about going back into the womb & screaming,
"LET ME THE f*** OUT!"
hats off to the stooges, the velvet underground,
kyuss, thee hypnotics, bad brains & teengenerate.
