The Kills are VV (vocals, guitar) and Hotel (drums, vocals, guitar), and they're finally ready to end the longing. No Wow is their heavily anticipated follow-up to 2002's Keep on Your Mean Side, and it is soon to be the seminal sweating, sultry stomp. You see, as experts of reduction seduction, The Kills have that rare ability to speak volumes without saying much -- No Wow clicks and seethes with glorious understatements.

Frill-free and fuzzed, No Wow is teeming with some of the most alluring love-hate dichotomies ever put to tape. It gnaws at you in the best possible way, like an itchy sweater of libidinal bliss. Every time VV and Hotel hit a stage, they prove they're the keepers of rock's most commanding stage presence. You can't look away, and something makes you feel like you probably shouldn't be looking in the first place.

User Reviews

   JDH - NY, NY, USA
The Kills are a duo that plays stripped down blues rock. Their second full length album No Wow is full of dirty, fuzzed out tunes that almost remind you of a more minimal White Stripes. Hotel and VV (their names) combine heavy bass guitars with drums. They even use simple electronic drum beats on tracks like ''The Good Ones'' that bring a new aspect to the blues rock sound. No Wow has a raw passion that seems to be missing from many of today's bands.
