Kylesa formed in Savannah, GA in 2001, taking their unusual name from "kilesa mara," what Buddhist teachings term demons of defilement and delusion. Kylesa is, fundamentally, a metal group, but is otherwise difficult to categorize: elements of hardcore punk, psychedelic stoner rock, technical speed metal, and good old-fashioned Black Sabbath sludge appear in their music. Also, with a front line consisting of three very different singers instead of a single focal point, and two drummers, Kylesa has a musical variety lacking from many of their more monochromatic peers.
