How To Kill is an instrumental rock band from Christchurch, whose music draws on a diverse but resonant tradition of electric music.

How To Kill first gathered in a Christchurch workshop in 2003 and played a handful shows with friends Into the Void. A four year hiatus passed before the band found themselves reactivating and focusing their efforts toward an album at the behest of Failsafe's Rob Mayes.

Reformed and writing new material, with the aid of a Creative NZ arts grant the band recorded their debut full-length 'Like Angels' over an intensive and creative 4 months with Mayes at his Avalanche studios and at How To Kill's headquarters in Lyttleton.

How To Kill is an instrumental rock band, whose music draws on a diverse but resonant tradition of electric music - Earth, Can, The MC5, Bark Psychosis, Slint, The Skeptics, and Black Flag all echo in their open-ended yet propulsive ebb and flow. Heaviness and light, light and darkness: with no motivation apart from four friends striving in communion to establish a still centre and happy place in the noise and rabid threshing of quotidian life.
