Coup D'état consists of the vocalist/guitarist Low T. Leo, bassist Gawain von Goethe, guitarist Miss Cinnemon Scone Islilje and the J-rock/drummer Rödtopp. Originaly the band had thoughts of playing ska, but both Gawain and Leo had been brought up with the punk culture, and since they were writers their music naturally developed into that, even though they ended up being Jamaican-influenced. The band is highly politcal, and define themself as extremist left. In the band's first week of existence they wrote over 10 lyrics and put music to 6 of them.
