The Kut's latest milestone, E.P 'Rock Paper Scissors' sees the trio ' comprised of vocalist Princess Maha, drummer Violet Cannibal and bassist/ vocalist Alison Wood ' taking a more stripped back, visceral approach toward their Riot Grrrl tainted alt-rock. Twinkling guitars are accompanied by harsh growls and contrastingly sweet melodies.

Discussing their previous release, Maha recalls: "[2014 E.P] 'Make Up' was a transition record; we vented a lot of frustration on that, but it was overwhelming rather than empowering," she continues "By the time it came to recording Rock Paper Scissors, our frustrations were transforming into something more constructive. The new music is very angry, but that's sometimes the process that's needed."

Available for both digital download and in CD format at https://thekut.bandcamp.com/ the offering includes a number of singles, including the recent 'I Don't Need Therapy'. Maha describes it's lyrical origin "It's kind of like having a birthday where everyone gets on your nerves or lets you down and you are half thinking, well what is the point of celebrating. While the other half of you is thinking, I don't need any of you and your negativity and I'm going to have fun no matter what. It's also about having fake advice forced down your throat... That kind of advice you didn't ask for that you can do without."
