About The Band
The Kills are an indie rock band formed by American vocalist Alison “VV” Mosshart and British guitarist Jamie “Hotel” Hince. Mosshart had been in the Florida punk band Discount and Hince in British rock band Scarfo. When these groups disbanded in 2002, the duo, who first met when Mosshart heard Hince practicing in the hotel room above hers, struck up an enduring artistic partnership. READ MORE...
As promised, here is another update to the galleries. There were also some updates that went unannounced, so be sure to take a look at the last uploads.
Stella McCartney for Gap / ‘Mummy Rocks’ Charity Fundraiser (MQ)
After quite a few months of radio silence, what with Alison touring with with The Dead Weather and reported time spent in the studio since September, it looks like The Kills may be gearing up for another album campaign soon. Here are some candids of the band and Kate Moss in Paris where they were supposedly filming – click the thumbnails to view more. It’s nice to see everyone together again!
Filming in Paris, April 4th (HQ)
As a personal aside I saw The Dead Weather last month and they absolutely blew me away. It looks like the second album is going to be as brilliant as the first!
I’ll be uploading a few more things today, so keep your eyes peeled for another update shortly.
Hey guys, I hope you had a great Christmas and New Year!
I’m finally getting some spare time again now that I’m winding down from summer school so expect a few changes around here shortly, like finetuning the layout, and – maybe, just maybe – the promised multimedia section and the forum. In the meantime, I’ve gradually uploaded a ton of pictures from last year all in the Appearances and Candids section, so I hope you enjoy – 23 albums worth! Here’s a sample of what you’ll find:
Jamie and Lily Allen in Paris – March 10
Ray-Ban Remasters – March 5
Singstar Queen Part – March 19
Another Fashion Book Party at Rue de Cambon – March 10
If you have any pictures that you’d like to submit that you’ve either taken yourself or found around the internet that you’d like to share, please do contact me via email or via the twitter account for the site.
I’ve had the time/uploading speed to do it today, so here’s another big gallery update – all appearance and candid photographs from 2008! Here’s a sample of what you’ll find:
Glastonbury, Day 1, June 27 2008 (MQ)
Nobby Clark Shoots Noel Fielding Exhibition, April 22 2008 (MQ)
Primal Scream Launch Party, July 15 2008

This is very very belated due to the ridiculousness of technical difficulties but TheKills.net would like to wish a very happy birthday to Alison Mosshart. We love you!
Just for you guys, here’s an absolutely fantastic photoshoot of Alison from this year – sorry about the tags on most of them – and another of the band. I hope you like them and thank you so, so much for your continuing support of the site. In case you didn’t see it on the sidebar on the left, you can follow http://twitter.com/redmeatheart for site updates and to get in touch!
I am having minor techincal difficulties at the moment (my laptop’s in the shop) so updates are a bit thin on the ground until I get it back, sorry! Here are some recent candids and event pictures to tide you over until then. Have a great weekend!
