The band was nominated for the Latin Grammy Awards XIII in the categories of Best Alternative Music Album for Dream Machine and Best Alternative Song for Black Day. Kinky is also nominated for "Best Latin Artist North" at the MTV Europe Awards. Their latest video “Still” is now available through Vice and features the famous LA burlesque dancer Diamondback Annie. The album is a mix of dreamy, hypnotic lyrics and pulsating, urgent electronic rhythms. In an interview with WXPN, the band calls it’s sound “danceable rock.” The songs are connected through the story they tell about a guy who goes from party to party, ending up in an apocalyptic world that is starting over. The last song "Control" is a celebration of the end of the world. The music of Kinky has been featured in numerous soundtracks, commercials, video games and TV shows including Nip Tuck, Weeds, and Gossip Girl. Their hit song “Mas” is included in the videogame SSX 3 and was used in a Taco Bell commercial in 2012. Kinky is currently touring South America but will play in LA on December 30.
