(Enschede, 1976 – 1978)

Meaning Bandname: Literally means Cunt. With this name the band will never get commercially succesful.

Bio: With singer Jan Pieter Kuil, who makes the Aambeeld fanzine, does the Ruzie project and later is guitarist/singer for Vacuüm in 1981-1985. Draws the cartoon Tuinstoelen Pietje (for fanzine Blok 5, DJN and he has made a small book). Runs the label Ruziek with 13 releases, mostly tapes. Kut does not stand for Kunst Uit Twente (Art From Twente) which is often considered. The band existing out of artstudents doesn’t play music (“If you wanna have music, listen to Thijs van Leer or The Stones!”) and want the crowd to think: “Is this necessary?”. The Dutch lyrics are a staccato summary of diseases. When they record for De 1000 Idioten Records the name changes to Popgroep KUT (Popgroup Cunt) but eventually they’re never released.
