Electrifying! It was just the two of them, but their stage presence easily rocked the whole room. Jamie regularly came to the front to engage the audience with his effortlessly cool guitar playing (that solo on Baby Says!), but it was Alison who stole the show! Her singing, her dancing, her way of losing herself in the music had me enthralled. For almost 1.5h straight! There was hardly any stage talk except for the occasional good-humoured jibe at the sauna-like atmosphere.
The set struck a good balance between old audience favourites and new gems. Plus, the duo‘s riveting live performance opened my eyes to some songs from the new album like “My Girls My Girls”, that had seemed solid in the studio, but not exceptional. Boy (& girl) had I been wrong!
The venue was small, almost intimate, which complemented the band’s relaxed & approachable demeanour. The crowd was eclectic & easy going.
Overall it was a thoroughly satisfying experience. Highly recommended!

The Kills Biography
The Kills are an indie/garage rock duo formed by American vocalist Alison "VV" Mosshart and British guitarist Jamie "Hotel" Hince that rose to public recognition at the dawn of the hype surrounding the "garage rock" and "indie rock" explosion of the early 2000s. Mosshart had been in the Florida punk band Discount and Hince in British rock band Scarfo. When these groups disbanded, the duo, who first met when Mosshart heard Hince practicing in the hotel room above hers, struck up a songwriting partnership. For months, the pair air mailed work tapes across the Atlantic; after this proved to test the patience of both artists, as it took days or weeks to get each others tapes, Mosshart upped sticks from her Florida home to fly to London.
Wanting to cut themselves off from their pasts, Mosshart and Hince considered their new project to be Year Zero in their careers, so they renamed themselves VV and Hotel respectively and began writing sparse, minimalist songs together with the aid of a drum machine. In 2001 they showcased their new songs on a well received demo tape. In true punk rock fashion, however, the pair shunned approaches from major record labels. Recording as VV and Hotel, they contributed the song "Restaurant Blouse" to the compilation If the Twenty-First Century Did Not Exist, It Would Be Necessary to Invent It. Shortly after this they recorded their debut release, the Black Rooster EP, which saw release on British indie label Domino Records and was picked up for distribution by Dim Mak Records in the United States.
Following international touring, they entered Toe Rag studios, where the White Stripes had recorded their album Elephant, to record their debut album Keep on Your Mean Side, mostly on 8-track, in just 2 weeks.
Their second album, No Wow, was released by Domino records on 21 February 2005. Featuring an artier, less guitar rock sound, the record embraced New Wave and post punk influences and sounded even more stripped down than Keep on Your Mean Side.
The first single, The Good Ones, from No Wow, was released on 7 February 2005 and reached number 23 in the UK singles charts. VV sang the song 'Meds' together with Brian Molko on the last Placebo album.
