Genre-crossing artist Cancer Killing Gemini fuses pop music with industrial, down tempo, post-grunge, electronica & rock. With a focus on songcraft and accessibility, CKG writes, records and releases honest, powerful radio-friendly music. Drawing on a wide range of influences (Big Black, Fiona Apple, The Jesus Lizard, Tears for Fears, NIN, Portishead, Deftones, Pixies, etc) Cancer Killing Gemini delivers melodic and lyrical hooks in multiple styles and genres.

Founder / musician / producer Eric Michael Cohen's previous project, kittymonkey, a moody and intense electro-pop foursome, received critical acclaim and spins on over 75 radio stations. Before kittymonkey, Eric toured playing bass in New York “luv punks” Battershell and fronted Boston hard rock outfit Decaf.

“...the chorus is this awesome, almost ballad-like hook that keeps you wanting more… 'Christcontrol' is a hell of a cool song” - PureGrainAudio.com

“...CKG blends hooks strong enough to land a whale with music that is ready to be played on commercial radio right now...” “...equal parts industrial wall of sound...and melodic ease that could be the soundtrack for a hurricane out at sea.” - MusikReviews.com
