Use Knife is the Belgian-Iraqi band formed by Kwinten Mordijck, Saif Al-Qaissy and Stef Heeren, in collaboration with visual artist Youniss Ahamad. In September 2022, Use Knife released their debut album, 'The Shedding of Skin,' on VIERNULVIER records (Gent, BE). This record revolved around human resilience and the courage to build a new life in an entirely different environment. One year later, Use Knife returned with ‘Sowieso F***ed’, a provocative anthem characterized by its chaotic blend of samples and sounds.

“There is nothing half-hearted about Use Knife as a live act. You get the distinct feeling that each member is totally energised by this iteration of their collective art. A Belgian article dubbed their sound “electronic outsider music,” yet for me it is an all-embracing vortex that allows those experiencing it a chance to plunge, headfirst, into a hypnotic state that veers between a dreamlike trance and a sensual workout.” wrote The Quietus.

On April 8 2024, Use Knife released the remix 10” vinyl EP 'Peace Carnival' through Berlin's Morphine Records. Zoë Mc Pherson, Rabih Beaini, and Muqata’a have reinterpreted three tracks from Use Knife's debut album. The EP challenges the narrative around peace through its percussions, glitches, distortions, and Muslimgauze-esque minimalism to rethink and transform perceptions of justice and freedom.

This year, Carnival’s usual satire and mockery target any one-sided ‘peace’. Since February 2023, Use Knife has been hosting a monthly radio show titled 'Feeding the Gentry' on Palestinian station 'Radio alHara' (also featured on NTS Radio, Rinse.fm, and Kiosk Radio).

Use Knife have previously featured as guests on Debt & Refuge in Nobvember 2023.
