Kibosh / France

Kibosh (Chaotic Hardcore, Frozen Records, France)

Dissonant, incisive & vicious, In only a couple years, Kibosh has become one of the most threatening and consistent newcomers in the everflowing french hardcore scene. The southern-western 5 piece unleashes a tour-de-force of panic-inducing riffs, rythm section meltdowns and earth-shattering breakdowns with brief metalcore & 90's rock influences as the only breath allowed in their pounding sonic maelstrom. 

Known for their extreme and engaging stage presence,  Kibosh are as uncompromising live as they are hyper-active in the studio, releasing their first album "Your Favorite Curse" in June 2024 on Frozen Records (Sorcerer, Cavalerie, Calcine), quickly followed by a suprise EP "Smother Me" in June 25 and a split EP with Swiss powerviolence allies XOXO, which led to a 2 weeks EU/UK tour in September 2025.
