KrashKarma

Krashkarma is a blazing rock/metal duo from Los Angeles, renowned for their extraordinary stage energy and a huge sound that defies all logic for a two-piece band.

Straddling hard rock, heavy metal and punk, the band has forged a raw, modern identity built firmly for live performance. At the helm, Ralf Dietel (vocals, guitar/bass) and Niki Skistimas (drums, vocals) form a formidable duo.

Ralf is notably known for his unique instrument, a hybrid guitar-bass that lets him handle both guitar and bass lines at once, giving Krashkarma a sound as dense as it is powerful.

Niki, meanwhile, brings a powerful drumming style and melodic vocal harmonies that contrast with and perfectly complement the project's intensity.

Originally formed in 2005 under the name Suicide Holiday, the band became Krashkarma and has toured internationally ever since, racking up more than 600 shows worldwide.

Their reputation has been built show after show, thanks to explosive performances that turn every concert into a genuine adrenaline rush.

With several albums and EPs to their name, including standout tracks like Straight To The Blood or Falling To Pieces, Krashkarma has established itself as a sure bet on the independent rock/metal scene.

Their hard work and live impact have earned them several accolades, including a Rock City News Award for their touring activity.

Often compared to a duo able to rival much larger bands, Krashkarma proves that intensity isn't measured by the number of musicians, but by the energy unleashed on stage.
