The band was formed by Chris Smith a.k.a. Chris “Slayer” (Guitarist & Vocalist), Jared Warren (Bassist & Vocalist) and Scott Jernigan (Drummer). The trio of Warren, Jernigan, and Smith, all went to the same high school together in Tumwater. Describing the town as a place where no one was into music and finding a mutual friendship through music, most notably their shared interest in American sludge metal band, the Melvins. The trio began writing heavy sounding music and finding their sense of humor, one of their first 7” records being a subtle jab at the Tumwater T-Birds, the football team of their high school.

They released three full length albums “Mustaches Wild”, “Suplex”, and “Self Titled LP.” (Note that “Self Titled LP” is a literal title. The title is not “Karp.” Even the CD version of the record is titled “Self Titled LP.”) They also released several EPs and 7” records. Their recordings were released by several Northwest-related labels such as K Records, Kill Rock Stars, and Punk In My Vitamins.

Members went on to form Tight Bros from Way Back When, The Whip, and Big Business. Though, The Whip would dissolve after Scott Jernigan was killed in a boating accident in 2003. Bassist Jared Warren would eventually join the Melvins throughout the late 2000s and mid 2010s, as well as join seminal post-hardcore band, Unwound, in their 2022 reunion tours.

A documentary film about the band KARP was made in 2009 by Bill Badgley of the band Federation X http://karplives.com
