threesacrowd Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Kings x and Rush have always been my 2 most favorite bands,I see Kings x is tour again,anyone else digging them? Have they ever opened for Rush?
Cato76 Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I used to watch King's X way back when they were just playing bars in the Springfield, MO area. I got to speak with them a few times and they were always my favorite local band. 1
keakag Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 King's X rocks!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tuAESqp57Y
Orbourus Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 (edited) Didn't Carmine Appice play for them?? btw; Does anybody but me remeber a band from the 80's called Zebra from the New Orleans area??? Zebra Edited May 23, 2008 by Orbourus
WCFIELDS Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Huge fan............love 'em. Their new album is great, highly recomended.
Merely Space Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 Love King's X, Zebra also. Who's behind the dooooooooooor?
third hand grace Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 There are some other threads about the X, I am a fan. I used to know the guys very well. Trying to track down a copy of their NEW cd. I hate buying music at the big box stores- I bet they won't have it.
galwayrush Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 I only discovered King's X about 3 years ago through some Rush Fans, i feel i've missed out because they are fecking brilliant, wish i'd discovered them much sooner.Next on my wish list of who i need to see Live.
Mr. Not Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I think a wise man once said something along the lines of: "He who doesn't enjoy King's X has no soul"
Segue Myles Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Discovered King's X this year and I love them, especially the first five albums, every bit as much as Rush. Faith Hope Love is my favourite at the moment, and I think the way they combine soul, funk, hard rock and metal is unique, and very addictive! Goldilox is one of my favourite songs now.

Merely Space Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Don't think King's X has ever opened for Rush, but I did see them open for the Scorpians once. Zebra rocks as well.
geezer Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Discovered King's X with "Out Of The Silent Planet" thru a friend of mine and I followed tbem until "Dogman".In 1991 we travelled in six from Milan to London for the gig at the Town & Country Club (now Forum) in Kentsh Town and it was definetely worth. 1
Digital Dad Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Yep. The first 4 for me are amazing. After the self titled album I moved onto other things. 1
Segue Myles Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I played the self titled album and didn't like it very much. Odd, but they lost a little something with that release, but thankfully more great albums were to come! 1
rocket ignites Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I'm a big fan of "Please Come Home...Mr. Bulbous". It's just a full-on weirdness kind of album...not for everybody, but I love it. Manic Moonlight is a bit of the same...odd and more minimal. An album like Tape Head is more straight ahead rock...good stuff. I'm also not into the self-titled album quite as much.
