The "Game Of Death" EP is the TKO debut release of the mysterious band known as the Kung Fu Killers. Even though the identity of the band is yet to be released, a few things that make this street smart band unique is their mix of old school hardcore punk with influences of punk rock greats like Black Flag, The Circle Jerks, Bad Brains, and The Misfits. The cd features three covers including "I Turned Into A Martian" by The Misfits, and also three originals recorded in a secret hideout in the woods of New Jersey. Even though TKO Records is sworn to secrecy and told not to reveal the idenities of these punks... their past bands include The Doom Patrol, Crimson Gash, and Slap Of Reality. One thing that can be said is that their sound is "Electric", and reflects an "Electric" band of the past. The band's goal is to deprogram the punk rock youth from the brain-rot that they have been listening to over the past decade, and I can say they have started off with the right Kung Fu move to do that.
