Karp (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Karp was a rock band from Olympia, Washington, that formed in 1992 and lasted until 1998. The band was formed by Chris Smith, Jared Warren, and Scott Jernigan. They released three full length albums entitled Mustaches Wild, Suplex, and Self Titled LP. (Note that "Self Titled LP" is a literal title. The title is not "Karp." Even the CD version of the record is titled "Self Titled LP.") They also released several EPs and 7" records. Their recordings were released by several Northwest-related labels such as K Records, Kill Rock Stars, and Punk In My Vitamins. Supposedly, the band name is an acronym that stands for "Kill All Redneck Pricks".[citation needed]
Members went on to form Tight Bros from Way Back When, The Whip, and Big Business (currently playing with The Melvins). Scott Jernigan died in a boating accident in 2003.
