Kyoto Drive formed out of the ashes of two Birmingham hardcore bands, when the two acts disbanded the remaining members came together to create the band we are today. We joined forces in early 2008 and have been playing the length and breadth of the UK thereafter. We have just released our debut EP ‘Spotlights and Stars’ which is available as a free download on this very page.
At the moment we are touring everywhere possible and writing relentlessly for our debut album (This Is All We Ever Wanted) which we are recording late spring/early summer 2009 hopefully for a summer release. Please keep checking back for more news, pictures, demos and stuff and please download our free EP, burn it to a couple discs and make your friends listen! Peace Out!

Kyoto Drive mix up the sound of Drive Thru circa 2002 and something slightly more modern and driving. There's intelligence and maturity in the songwriting - PUNKTASTIC.COM
Enough pop punk in it to make it fun but just that touch of emo seriousness the kids like - CHRIS JAY OF ARMY OF FRESHMEN
Get on this bandwagon before they make a (NEW FOUND GLORY ALBUM) "Catalyst" and it starts getting crowded! - ROCKFREAKS.NET
'Don't Turn Your Back On The Sun' is a strong opener, and the EP's closing song, 'You Had Me At Hello', has a chorus to rival any UK band, and at times sounds very, very similar to Brand New circa Your Favourite Weapon. - ALTERTHEPRESS.COM
