The Great Gig in the Sky

About Me

Kicks joy Darkness was formed in 1999 and was destroyed in 2001. After making a name for themselves in the London underground music scene, recording an EP and various live gigs, the band went to Italy to Alberto's home/studio to record their debut album. Two months later (on November 8th, 2001), three members of the band (Anno, Alberto, and Lee) were killed in a car crash while driving back from a club in Milan. What material of theirs remains is a testament to their incredible talent and their dedication to the forwarding of music as we know it. To hear about the full story, and to view/download tonnes more music, writings, and photos of the band, go to www.kicksjoydarkness.co.uk. The website has been kept up and running by their families and friends and is a tribute to and a rememberance of KjD.Mediajestic
