Details On Self-Titled New Album Revealed By Kings Destroy

Brooklyn stoner rock/doom unit Kings Destroy will unleash a brand new studio offering on May 5th. The self-titled monster, and follow-up to last year's critically-lauded "A Time Of Hunting," was produced and mixed by Sanford Parker (Twilight, Voivod, Eyehategod, Yob etc.) at Studio G in Brooklyn, mastered by Collin Jordan (Eyehategod, Indian, Wovenhand, Voivod etc.) at The Boiler Room in Chicago and delivers seven, lead-footed doom rock hymns.

With the third album in four years, Kings Destroy leave its hardcore-born stamp on noise rock and doom. After sharing stages with Pentagram, Winter, Saint Vitus, Church of Misery, Yob, Pallbearer, Vista Chino, Orange Goblin, Trouble, Acid King, Corrosion Of Conformity and so many others, the five-piece stand tall with their defining statement. Championed Yob guitarist/vocalist Mike Scheidt, "It's a great album. Heavy, yes. Doom? Yes, with a dose of the best of the '90s. I'm a fan of the '90s," he further elaborates, "so that is meant as a compliment.

"But what is best about Kings Destroy is that they write good songs. Helmet meets early Queens Of The Stone Age meets Kyuss/Unida, roughly. [Steve] Murphy's vocals are strong and really steps up what is already killer. Great production, tones, performances." Adds Pentagram's Bobby Liebling, "Kings Destroy is some heavy shit. I can feel the emotion. I can tell Murphy has got some serious pain; he's singing from his balls."

The track listing for "Kings Destroy" is:

1. Smokey Robinson
2. Mr. O
3. W2
4. Mythomania
5. Embers
6. Green Diamonds
7. Time for War
