An assault of harsh keyboard and sampled guitar. As harsh as Fear Factory or Skrew but keyboard not guitar based.

Klute is an industrial music project founded by Danish musician Claus Larsen, who is best known for his main project, Lether Strip. Originally formed in 1991 under the name Klute, Larsen began the project after finishing a Lether Strip release and feeling compelled to generate music in a completely different modality than his flagship project. Larsen chose the name on a whim after viewing a TV ad for the film of the same name (Larsen admits he’s never watched the film.) The project went dormant after 1996’s Excel. It reformed in 2006 as Klute, to avoid confusion with drum and bass artist Tom Withers who had since risen to prominence with the pseudonym Klute. As compared to Lether Strip, Larsen describes Klut as more “loud and fun.” Klut’s initial releases were in the industrial metal style, mixing Lether Strip’s electro-industrial sound with sampled guitars.
