The band consists of the members:
Kasper Eistrup (vocals & guitar)
Mads Tunebjerg (bass)
Asger Techau (drums)
Henrik Lindstrand (keyboards & guitar).
Their earlier albums were musically in the vein of Primus and Red Hot Chilli Peppers, but with their third full length album their style changed dramatically to be influenced by Jeff Buckley and Radiohead, a style often characterised by newcomers as in the same veins as Coldplay, however Kashmir has in Kasper Eistrup, an original text writer and singer, who can hardly be summarized as anything close to Chris Martin.
To this date, the band have released seven full length albums. Their latest, E.A.R. (2013). With the release of NBP, the band yet again changed direction musically to be inspired by artists such as Sonic Youth and other noise rockers.
It should be noted that there also was a Swiss band with the same name which was active between 1979 and 1982. Consisting of keyboarder Patrice Guenat and singer Henry Dubelly, they produced two albums that range between synthesizer pop and neo-progressive genres.
Another danish band in the 70s was also called Kashmir or more correctly "Jørgen Thomsen & Kashmir", but due to Spotify (Kashmir, Jørgen Thomsen tag) they will scrobble as Kashmir, despite being a backing band at least on the 1972 record they recorded:
Jørgen Thomsen was backed by prominent musicains in "Kashmir": Nils Tuxen (Savage Rose, Flemming Hansen (bass), Ken Gudman at drums and Carl Åge Isaksen on piano.

Kashmir Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Picture you inside my golden frame
I do deep intellectual films
I admit containing certain thrills
You may think that I'm just an ordinary boy
But, behind my fly I am swollen...
happy that you made it here today
Now you see that I was never ordinary, girl
'cause behind this lens was a genius
hey sugar will you star in my movie?
Fit the 'tart part' well
Hey sugar will you show your pussy?!?
you are fast asleep, I scan your inner eyelids
Crawl inside your mouth to check your throat depths
I investigate your juicy 'genitals'
When you're coming back I'll be on your back!
The lyrics of Kashmir's song Star in My Movie introduce us to a filmmaker who is looking for inspiration and brings it to life through his art. He is captivated by a woman who is the subject of his film and wants to capture her essence within the golden frame of his camera. However, he is not just an ordinary boy. He sees himself as a genius behind the lens, creating intellectual films that contain certain thrills. The line "behind my fly I am swollen" suggests his excitement and passion for his craft.
The filmmaker is admiring the woman he has set his sights on and asks if she would like to star in his movie. He believes she would fit the "tart part" well and boldly asks if she would show her "pussy." The lyrics that follow reveal his obsession with the woman, as he scans her inner eyelids, crawls inside her mouth, and investigates her genitals.
Star in My Movie seems to be a song about the line between art and obsession. The filmmaker seeks inspiration for his work but becomes infatuated with his subject, blurring the line between his artistic vision and his personal desires. The lyrics suggest that his obsession may ultimately consume him, as he plans to be on her back when she returns.
