Kann Karate – the least embarrassing of many discarded working-titles for a band name – was formed in 2015. Situated somewhere between post-punk and indie rock, the band is comprised of Eric (vocals), Chris (bass), Bastian (drums) and Daniel (guitar). Their first demos, recorded in a smoky rehearsal room in Berlin, accidentally became their first record, “Ecke Revaler”.

Just like that. No master-plan. Completely DIY – no label, no publisher, no distribution. Because who needs those bells and whistles? If you’re up for it, you do it.
