About
One of the most lyrically dangerous and sonically frenzied crews around, Killarmy first appeared in 1996 with the release of their "Camouflage Ninjas" single. They followed it up with "Wu-Renegades" and then released their brilliant 1997 debut Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars. Fueled by 4th Disciple's startlingly original production, the six-man, Wu-affiliated demolition team displays a distinct style all their own. Military imagery dominates, from camouflage-clad album cover shots to samples from Full Metal Jacket and M*A*S*H. Razor-sharp flows stun listeners with graphic battlefield descriptions and terrorist plots. Helicopters and missiles fly overhead, turning stereos into fire-strewn killing fields. Subsequent work, such as their sophomore album Dirty Weaponry, continues the war-torn theme, though it's slightly mellower than their first effort.
