Kinesis were an alternative rock band from Bolton, England. The group formed in September 2000 whilst at school, and split after five years in June 2005. During this time they recorded two full studio albums, a mini album and several singles under three record labels.

Their first recording was the five track, self-released EP, The Flowers Are Dead, which was followed up by a mini-album, Worship Yourself. This mini-album was released on the band's own 'White Noise Recordings' record label. At that time, the ages of the band ranged from 16 to 18. Rave reviews of Worship Yourself in publications such as Kerrang! helped the band build up a dedicated, if small, fan base in the UK. The band signed a recording contract with Independiente in 2002.

They released their first full-length album Handshakes For Bullets in September 2003 on Independiente. The band toured the UK on a number of occasions, and also played concerts in New York City (as part of the CMJ music festival), Texas (as part of the South By Southwest festival) and Tokyo. Kinesis played concerts supporting numerous bands, the most prominent of which were; Linkin Park, Muse, Manic Street Preachers, Biffy Clyro, Hundred Reasons and Lostprophets. They also performed on a number of their own headline tours.

The band parted with Independiente, in mid-2004. Their second album You Are Being Lied to was released in June 2005 on the indie label Captains of Industry. The album was recorded and produced by the band themselves on a tight budget.
