Documented collaborators
Violent Kin emerged in 2006 from the collaboration that began with The Blood Lines, carving a space in electro-pop/rock with vintage synth elements. The duo built a reputation through a New York residency and extensive North American touring during the late 2000s and early 2010s, blending 80s-inspired synth textures with modern pop hooks. Their sound centers on punchy rhythms, melodic hooks, and a come-as-you-are approach to touring and releasing music.
