Hand and Knee is a noise project created by John Grimaldi in 2012.

Early HAK work was often lo-fi and leaning more towards strange experimental music, drone or sound collage than harsh noise. Microphone feedback squeals were often utilized along with keyboard/synth melodies, voice samples and manipulations of FL Studio sounds. Then came the "Torture Haven" album which contained blasts of harsh distortion noise, but was mostly collage of obscure sounds. "Permanent Amnesia" from 2013 was the first HAK album with long harsh noise passages, as well as subtle experimental pieces.

Vocals are sometimes utilized, and lyrics can be yelled, screeched or simply spoken. Lyrical content deals with topics such as control, banality, fear, obsession, desperation, delusion and collapse.
