[edit] Name

The name Koyi k utho has various meanings: The K in the middle resembles a kanji, the same used by samurai before combat to resupply energy and power. The philosophy of the band talks about the evolution of the man-machine symbiosis, but with man always on the control.

The band's name was chosen as a tribute to Mazinger Z. In their concerts, and in the personal makeup of the members, a heavy manga influence can be seen.

[edit] Sound

The band is focused on all types of industrial, specifically cyber core or industrial metal. They combine the energy and aggressiveness of punk, metal, industrial and electronic music. But as the band's website says: Do not confuse aggressiveness with violence.

The band's music is influenced by groups as Prong, Cubanate, Fear Factory, Front Line Assembly, Pantera, Sex Pistols, D.R.I., Static-X, and others.
