Unfashionably cool with their middle digit firmly raised to the trend setters & followers alike. Over the last few years the band have forged a chemistry way beyond their years, which only truly great bands are able to accomplish. By no means X Factor style ‘overnight successes’, still self-managed they have been working their craft hard since their conception in 2005, building to the point where 2013 promises to be the year of KOK.

After winning KERRANG!’s Best Unsigned Live Act in 2008 and spending the bulk of 2009-2011 touring in both the UK and Europe offering support to one Steven Adler (Guns n' Roses’ original drummer) when he took his already successful act Adler’s Appetite on the road. Knock Out Kaine played 22 dates with Adler’s Appetite across Europe’s most famously debauched venues.

KOK also toured with Chris Holmes of W.A.S.P. supporting his new band Where Angels Suffer on the UK leg of their european tour, as well as rocking a prestigious spot on the Pepsi Max Stage at Download Festival 2011...

2012 ran its course, anticipating that it was going to be a big year for Knock Out Kaine... Excitement built to near fever pitch as the guys signed their first album deal leading to the release of our debut album entitled "House Of Sins" through Dust On The Tracks Records (DOTT Music, Germany)...believe when the critics say "It rocks hard!!". The Midlands quartet completed the year 2012 by opening up in Glasgow for British rock legends Status Quo on their annual QuoFest Concert Tour.

Here at KOK HQ, we are revved up for the next big push, 2013 see's them supporting Hollywood rockers Love/Hate on their Blackout '13 UK tour, a spot at Classic Rock Magazines Hard Rock Hell AOR Festival, a slot in Britains newest rock festival, SkyFest and the long awaited release of our debut music video for "Set the Night on Fire".

"Rise Of The Electric Jester" is the 2nd album by the band; it was recorded at Axis Studios in Doncaster (Black Spiders, Terrorvision, Absolva), mastered by Ray Staff (Zeppelin, Sabbath, Muse, The Clash) and released on Rocksector Record.
