A movement in response to a stimulus
Kinesis formed in September of 2000 and recorded their first demo - 'The Flowers Are Dead EP' - in October. The positive response to this recording prompted the band to return to the studio in February 2001 with Pete Troughton (Elbow, I Am Kloot) to record 5 tracks which would eventually form the bulk of the Worship Yourself Minialbum. This initial recording secured a distribution deal with Cargo Records, which led to the recording of an additional 3 tracks (2 of which were taken from 'The Flowers Are Dead') in March.

The final product of all of this was the Worship Yourself minialbum, which is currently limited to 1000 copies, many of which were sold thanks to early support from the likes of Steve Lamacq and Kerrang!, as well as support slots with bands like King Adora and The French Kicks.

In the summer of 2001, Kinesis set out on a string of live dates around the country, playing London or Cardiff one week to Manchester or Glasgow the next, improving and refining their live sound. By December their restless schedule had generated enough interest to land them in Maida Vale studios, to record a live Evening Session for Steve Lamacq. The following week they were back in a London studio recording with Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, My Vitriol), followed by even more live dates.

They've now signed to Independiente, supported the Manics at Brixton and 2003 is gonna be a huge year for them.
