Kat & Roman Kostrzewski (abbreviated as "Kat & RK") was a thrash metal ensemble from Poland, established in 2004 by Roman Kostrzewski and Ireneusz Loth following their exit from the original band KAT. This group is frequently regarded as the continuation of KAT, largely due to Roman's unique vocal style, lyrical themes, and the persistent incorporation of the Polish language in the majority of their compositions.
Beginning in 2004, Kat & Roman Kostrzewski embarked on numerous tours throughout Poland while working on their first album, Biało-czarna ("White-and-black"), which was officially released in April 2011 under Mystic Production. Some initial tracks were made available to audiences toward the end of 2010.
Roman Kostrzewski died from cancer on February 10, 2022, at the age of 61.
