King Hell, a band that’s been referred to as the “epic defenders of funk” have brought us a theatrical musical punch in the ear with their debut album, Rhythm and Bruise. With scintillating guitar work and dramatic Freddie Mercury-like vocals, King Hell is definitely kicking some music ass and taking names.
The album starts off with Brooklyn, a track that could easily be heard in the jukebox of your local pub. As you sip your Stella, your ears would perk up to Doc Johnson’s thick voice bringing that theatrical fUnK. That’s right, I alternated lower and upper case! Is that not cool anymore? Goddamnit. It’s hard hard to keep up with what these stupid shithead kids are into these days… narf.
Anywho- if you’re craving a little sway from the same ol’ shit you hear every day, you should check out King Hell and give your ear buds something to do. Rhythm and Bruise came out in October so you’re already behind. GO! NOW!
