(***New videos up on youtube. The page for my americana/roots side project Koala?! and the Exploding Meth Lab can now be found at www.soundcloud.com/theexplodingmethlab
KOALA has been making d.i.y. bedroom outsider lo-fi anti folk punk since 2003, but due to mental illness and drug addiction he lost his focus and nothing ever came of it. After sobering up and regaining a degree of sanity, he began writing and recording again in the fall of 2015. 
K0ALA was raised in Los Angeles and grew up in the punk rock and hardcore scene, moving into indie and noise rock in his young adulthood. Influences are taken from punk and hardcore, from indie folk and indie rock, from noise rock, from outsider, from folk punk, from early americana-roots, from folk and country, from alt. country and antifolk, even from the lyricism of hip hop (i.e. wu tang clan, del the funky homosapien, asher roth, el-p).

KOALA has long aimed to cultivate the chaos and urgency in his own life and capture it in his songs (whether he has failed at this or not is up to you). Noise, fuzz, overdrive, feedback, off key vocals, detuned guitars, cheap recording equipment, and of course chain smoking cheap cigarettes all add up to make the fucking mess that is KOALA?! AND THE K-HOLES

Press Quotes:

"I literally almost shit my pants while listening to Koala?! and the K-Holes...But in a good way. My ears were bleeding and my underwear were stained with feces, but it was worth every horrible moment!" -Pitchfork Magazine

"When I first heard Koala?! and the K-Holes I thought to myself 'who do they sound like?' and when it finally came to me I realized they were the spitting image of the Arcade Fire, if the Arcade fire were, like, 78% less shitty of a band" - NME 

"Koala and the K-holes made me campaign to get the name of the zine changed to MAXIMUM FULK!, but they wouldn't agree because they said only posers like marsupials" - Maximum Rock n Roll

"If there's on artist to listen to while having questionably legal sex with animals, koala?! and the k-holes would totally be it! They're like Dave Matthews Band for severely psychologically impaired bonobo apes!" - Spin magazine

I try to make stuff that sounds different... I moderately succeed sometimes, should definitely try to get more done but I'm pretty lazy.


Hey, the name's Kyle, and I live in Montreal and I enjoy playing guitar and singing.I've recorded some songs produced by April Hutchins of Mellevon and I've also worked on a few shoddy demos in my room. Currently I've been playing acoustic material, playing at open mics at bars and playing funny songs and sappy songs. Some of my main influences include Bright Eyes, Nine Inch Nails, Pixies, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Smiths, Fugazi, Against me!, Andrew Jackson Jihad, A Wilhelm Scream and Punk and New Wave music. 

Come chill by my page whenever you feel the need.

Sick tramp family sounds is the sound scape and sound design branch of of Sicktamp. SickTramp is the name for all my creative endeavours and acts as an umbrella title for all the projects i make. This page is for my sound design and composition work. With in it you'll find a collection of sounds, compositions and soundscapes. fitting for film, games, audio stories, art art exhibitions and theatre.
I've always been obsessed with sound and making art out of the noises we hear in everyday life. I collect location recording and use them in a lot of my work,  I'm also currently working out way to incorporate them live into my  solo acoustic project( Ellis Tramp) to use as soundscapes made to work along side my songs, weaving in and out to help create the right atmosphere. i always strive to create a sense of atmosphere in all my sound work and hopefully you will see that in my work posted up here.
