NOT FOR SALE. FREE DOWNLOADS ONLY
Kaoss Edge have recorded close to 100 songs (that we know of) in 10 years within a musical career spanning 25 years. Very little of their music is available online-- this is a collection of 7 songs that I have gathered from far corners of the internet-- seemingly everything available for anyone who doesn't own the original tapes and records no longer in circulation.

Kaoss Edge was formed in Anchorage in 1989 by Malkon Flex, Flow Kranium & Krank Iodione. from 1990 to 1992 they released 2 ep's on Kranial Records 'HARD AS FUCK' & 'DOG'
in 1993 they released their first full length album 'FUCKED UP BED' on Skeletal Records followed by a Live album
'NO REASON TO (LIVE) (in 1994) also w/ Skeletal which included 2 previously un-recorded songs 'Breath Without Air'
& 'Repulsed'. At this point Malkon leaves the band due to extreme carpal tunnel because he's ''playing too fast and too many notes'' The Band (sans Malkon & now joined by 'Head On' from the band 'Head Decapitators') release 2 albums in 1995 on
Whoresnest Records, their sophomore album 'SLIME MAN' (which featured a bizarre and unrecognizable cover of Guns N' Roses' 'November Rain') & a collection of un-released B-sides titled 'KARTRIDGE GREY'.
Durring this time Flow released a solo 12" with the label LARRY"S WORLD as 'Leonard Crakvicks'.
in 1996 new bassist 'Head On' had a psychotic break and killed 2 people at shopping Mall. The band now back in it's original line-up with Malkon join the label Larry's World and release their last 4 albums from 1996-1999,
*KONFRONTATION (in 1996) (features their first huge single "Insanitizer")
*TROLL THE RUINS (in 1997) (features the single "Unidentified" which is a reference to one of the ex-band member's unidentified murder victims, as well as the song " Garden Display Murders" a reference to where the murders took place "...at the Mall in front of Cindy's Donuts and Garden Display.")
*BIOCONFUSED (1998) was the last album the band recorded chronologically. It is considered Flow Kranium's masterpiece, where Flow's flair for masochistic, mythological and fantasy-based torture lyrics reached the top.
Flow died later that year and remains cryogenically frozen, a clear interest or even obsession of Flow's
that can be seen in lyrics about wanting to be frozen in songs like 'To Build A Fire', 'The Ice Castle of Krannalith', '4224 Frozen Klone', 'Trapped in Ice' and 'Refridgeration Chamber'
.
FRIDGEHEAD (a previously unreleased album) was their last album put out in 1999.

Little is known about Kaoss Edge at this point they disappeared for 15 years until they released "PLATITUDES" a 2 song EP on their own label 'Konfrontation Records' in 2015 with new band member Ezra Lian
