Kill the Thrill is a French rock band, formed in 1989 in Marseille. The band consists of Nicolas Dick (lead vocals, guitar, programming), Marylin Tognolli (bass, programming, vocals), and Frédéric De Benedetti (guitar, vocals).[1]

Generally associated with the industrial music movement, the band has dabbled with a variety of sounds during its career, ranging from alternative rock, to ambient goth, to darker new wave, and heavy metal.[1] The band's musical eclecticism led to a cult following among its selective audience.[1][2][3] During its career, the band has also released records sporadically, including Dig (1993), Low (1996), 203 Barriers (2003), and Tellurique (2005).[1]

Kill the Thrill also performed as a supporting act for bands such as Killing Joke, The Young Gods, Einstürzende Neubauten and Treponem Pal.[4]
