KeeN
KeeN is a band born in Sulmona, Italy, in February 2003. KeeN are influenced by several industrial metal bands like Rammstein, The Kovenant and Marilyn Manson (whose tour "Against all Gods tour" was opened by KeeN in 2005), and metal bands like Metallica, but the KeeN sound is a personal mix of melodies, aggressiveness, involving rhythms and electronic samplings; a result of the union of the different musical skills and interests of each member of the band.
