Headless Kross Releasing Krozmik Artefact: Live at Kozfest 2019 This Friday
This is pretty god damned nasty. The new live album from Glasgow’s Headless Kross, given the tongue-in-cheek title Krozmik Artefact: Live at Kozfest 2019 — get it? — will be released this Friday. What’s that like two days from now? What day is it? What day is this post going up? I don’t know. Whatever. By the time it’s Saturday, this shit’ll be out and about, issued by the band, and as noted, it’s a ripper. Of throat. I don’t generally think of the Scottish three-piece as being this raw, but either they were having an especially need-some-catharsis wee when they played Kozfest 2019 or this is just how it goes. I don’t know, but it’s five tracks long and I haven’t heard one of them yet that’s not shooting one way or the other for scorched-earth. Fuggin’ harsh, it is.
And whatever day it is now — man, I hope I post this before it comes out — it’ll be out Friday, so get your Bandcamping ready. I know it’s not Bandcamp Friday anymore or whatever, but you can still buy music. It’ll be okay.

Veteran Scottish psych-doomsters HEADLESS KROSS will release their new live album
“Krozmik Artefact: Live at Kozfest 2019” on Friday the 4th of June 2021 via their bandcamp page. As well as the digital release there will be a very limited run of 39 cassettes with screen-printed covers. 25 copies will be available on the band’s bandcamp page on the day of release.
Kozfest 2019 was held in Devon, England on the 27th -29th of July and also featured The Heads, Electric Moon, Crazyhead and Wild Rocket amongst many others. The album includes the band’s full 55 minute set from the Saturday as well as their introduction from legendary Kozfest compere Kozmik Ken, who sadly passed away last year.
On the subject of the album the band’s guitarist and recording engineer Tommy Duffin said, “I found the multitrack of this recording last month while looking for something else. I had completely forgot about it but when I listened, I realised it was a great live document of the band, so I started mixing. I think this is the best recorded example so far of the Headless Kross live experience so far.”
Derek – Bass & voice,
Jonny – Drums,
