Kosheen Information

|
'Kosheen' is a UK trip hop, drum and bass musical group which consists of two producers, Markee Substance and Darren Decoder (real name Darren Beale), and singer Sian Evans. Their first album, Resist (released in mid-2002 and reaching number 8 in the UK album chart) spawned the singles "(Slip and Slide) Suicide", "Hide U", "Catch", "Hungry", and "Harder". Their second album, Kokopelli (released in late 2003 and named for a mythical Native American spirit) focused less on drum-and-bass beats and more on guitar riffs and darker-toned lyrics. It outperformed its predecessor in the UK album chart by reaching number 7.
The name of the band is a combination of the Japanese words for "old" (romanized transliteration ko) and "new" (shin).
