Khost are a Birmingham, UK based duo, made up of Andy Swan (Iroha / Final) and Damian Bennett
(carthage / 16-17 / Cortex / Gauge/ Deathless / Techno Animal).
Since their inception in 2013, they have toured the UK extensively with both Godflesh and Conan, toured Israel and also shared stages with Asphyx, Locrian, OvO, Final/JK Flesh, and more.
With collaborators including Eugene Robinson of Oxbow, Daniel Buess and other sources providing saxophone, cello and voice for their wide-ranging recordings, they have also been remixed by D&B artists Hostage and Necrobia.
They have released two albums ‘Copper Lock Hell’ and ‘Corrosive Shroud’ (8/10, Terrorizer magazine) and a Godflesh Remix EP 'Needles in the Ground'
“Even before I found out about who Khost were, and wondered why and how they’ve managed to disgorge the divinely deranged document that is Corrosive Shroud, I could tell they were from
Birmingham. They have that sense of music being crushed out of them that all the best heavy Brum bands have, that sense that they grew up under a car park, didn’t see sunlight until they were well into their twenties, that same dazed, extreme feel of oppressive concrete overload that Sabbath
and Godflesh and Nathrakh and Mistress had…. ” (The Quietus)
