Featuring veterans of various scenes and genres (active and past members of Vulnus, Cut off, Rita Mosss, Casual Nun, Progress of Inhumanity, Dusteroid and Straighthate), Krause play AmRep/Touch and Go inspired heavy noise rock and put on an equally unforgiving live show to go with it. 

Making a bold artistic statement without breaking stuff along the way simply doesn’t work, which is why Krause left nothing to chance and set things in motion with “2AM Thoughts,” a full-length release of destructive crash ‘n’ roll that permanently scarred the local scene and established their undeniable presence and sonic expression. 

A couple of years were all it took for “The Ecstasy of Infinite Sterility” to come to life, solidifying their position with a brutal, sparsely melodic monolith of an album. The solid, composition-focused LP received critical acclaim and introduced a relentless groove to the all-out-noise DNA of Krause, which would become a trademark. 

The Art of Fatigue, released in May 2022 by Venerate Industries, found Krause channeling urban pressure and personal burnout into a tight, angular noise rock record. The riffs hit like concrete blocks, the rhythms lurch and punch, and the whole thing feels scraped together from the underside of a city that's long stopped pretending to care. It's noisy, sure, but never for the sake of it - more like a necessary exorcism. A portrait of fatigue rendered loud, vital and impossible to ignore.
