KEN Mode
KEN Mode — the acronym stands for Kill Everyone Now — is a noise rock band formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1999 by brothers Jesse and Shane Matthewson. The group earned a Juno Award for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year for their Kurt Ballou-produced LP Venerable (2011, Profound Lore), which refined their assault of metallic noise rock, sludge, and post-hardcore. Subsequent albums including Loved (2018, produced by Andrew Schneider) and Null (2022, Artoffact Records) have pushed the band toward darker, more industrial-tinged territory.
