Kassie Krut have announced their self-titled debut EP and shared a new song from it, “Racing Man.” The Kassie Krut EP is due out December 6 via Fire Talk. Check out “Racing Man” below, followed by the EP’s tracklist and cover artwork.

Kassie Krut started out as a solo project for former Palm member Kasra Kurt, but grew into a full fledged band also featuring Eve Alpert (also of Palm) and Matt Anderegg (Mothers, Body Meat). Palm was a Philadelphia math-rock band that disbanded in 2023. Kurt and Alpert spent their teenage years in London, where they were exposed to dub, grime, and garage. Anderegg produced Palm’s final record.

The EP includes “Reckless,” a new song the band shared earlier this month that was one of our Songs of the Week.

A press release describes the sound of the EP in great detail: “On their self-produced, self-titled debut, Kassie Krut’s approach is deceptively simple. With a constrained palette and a penchant for repetition, they find a world of opposing textures and timbres: electric and acoustic, synthetic and organic, terrestrial and celestial. Their scratch-made sounds melodize the hard-edged noise of daily life—car alarms, notification chimes, dial tones, feedback—against stutter-step high hats, pots-and-pans percussion, and tensile bass tones that thrash around like a rubber ball.”

1. Reckless
2. Racing Man
3. United
4. Espresso
