Yaphet Kotto was a hardcore punk band, named after the actor, from Santa Cruz, California active between 1996 and 2005.[1] Yaphet Kotto formed after the demise of a band called Staple that Casey Watson and Mag Delaney were members of.[2] Lyrically, the group dealt with with social and political issues. They were also known for their chaotic and cathartic compositions which blended melody and extremity.[3] The group released three full-length albums on Ebullition Records,[4] and made several singles, extended plays, and appearances on split-albums and compilations.[5]
