One of the leading bands on the New York Hardcore scene, Kraut played fast, hard, committed punk rock with lyrics that dealt with both personal and political themes. While they were very much part of the NYHC community, they also showed the influence of earlier British bands, a sound that informed their classic 1982 debut album An Adjustment to Society. 1984's Whetting the Scythe added a strong heavy metal accent to their music, and 2004's Live at CBGB's, recorded during a 2002 reunion gig, saw them finding a muscular sonic midpoint between their two eras.
