- Heading way back in time to the 1988 album Out of the Silent Planet from King's X, The first album from King's X and the first song on the first King's X album "In The New Age" fans of King's X get in those comments and give me your thoughts on this song and album!
Few hard rock bands are as widely respected yet criminally overlooked as King's X. The trio (bassist/vocalist Doug Pinnick, guitarist/vocalist Ty Tabor, and drummer/vocalist Jerry Gaskill) seemed destined for the big time with their irresistible blend of melodic Beatlesque harmonies, metallic riffing, and prog rock detours, yet for reasons unknown, never truly broke through to a mainstream audience.

Love me some King's X. The early albums are all amazing.
Doug Pinnick is the bassist/lead singer for King's X (although all three have sung lead). He has been very prolific over the years and even has joined with George Lynch in a recent band called KXM. Supershine, Pinnick Gales Pridgen, and The Mob are all other examples of Pinnick side projects. The Jelly Jam was a Ty Tabor side project and another one was called Jughead.
When this came out, there's was nothing remotely like it. Loved it from this first song. Heavy, bright, rockin, and fantastic live. Saw them 3 times so far and will be seeing them again in Houston Oct 30th. Just about every song in the first four albums is excellent. You got to let these first albums marinade in your mind and you'll get what 100s of thousands of us fans get with this band.
If ever you have a chance to see King's X in concert don't hesitate just buy the tickets. Saw them in concert 3 times. First on the Gretchen Goes to Nebraska tour era. Then on Faith Hope Love era tour and finally on the Dogman era tour. I hard to believe that three dudes can produce that much volume of sound. Up until I just saw Tool the Dogman concert was the loudest concert I believe I've ever been to. King's X is working on a new album. I think it's due out in 2022 sometime.
my #1 fave band.
Hit their first 5 albums...almost any song. It will improve your life.
King's X all fucking day long!
I do know this song but haven't heard it for 30 years! I had forgotten how quasi-trippy and groovy it is so this was a nice throwback. I don't know a whole lot by King's X but this did make me want to revisit some material....
Another great song off this album is the softer rock hit Goldilox.
Hey this reminds me of walking down Tottenham Court Road,London....I heard this song being played loudly from the Astoria Theatre....didn't know who it was so got me a ticket and went inside. Wow they blew me away....been a massive fan ever since. Saw them supporting AC/DC a year or two later ....stole the show......check out the faith hope love album especially..we were born to be loved.
That's fantastic story Mark! well done.
One of my favorite King's X songs ever, including the ethereal intro and buildup and the deep, meaningful lyrics. It doesn't sound like Shane fully "gets it" but this was an amazing early piece from the band...
It’s a mood builder for sure…
This song was cool. These fella's are legendary. Very popular band here in Texas. Got to meet dUg a few times when he was playing with Razr13
this being the album opener they wanted to give it some flavor/build up (same thing with the next album...), it didn't sound like you could hear the strange intro sounds that build up, it is also strange (listening to it now after so many years being a nut fan) that Ty starts as the lead vocals and Doug kind of comes in... some of us have always wondered if this mixed approach (at times) prevented people from getting "it"... Dogman was much more straight forward and Doug (vocally) driven. Ty does not like to sing (generally) but their manager at the time really pushed them vocally (all three). They are SUPER nice people. Jerry is hilarious but in a very subtle way, you have to pay attention to him or you miss out. What I like (and maybe you noticed) they rarely use any over dubbing so they sound live like they do on the records. Doug also sings much lower the past 20 years, he was singing too high back then (because he thought he had to). I would posit that they popularized the Drop D tuning for rock/grunge (many of those bands credit them as influences etc.). Generally speaking there are 2 camps of fans... the "Gretchen" fans (2nd album) and the "Dogman" fans. Gretchen is more like the first album but has absolute class, and lyrics. "Summerland" (to me) is one of the most perfect songs ever written, amazing riff, vocals, lyrics, solo and taut time wise. "Over My Head" was an institution at the concerts for years to the point that by 1994 the crowd would sing the whole song with doug doing a "preachy"(not religious) part as the crowd sang... it's quite the experience. I'm in the Gretchen camp... but I totally get the allure of Dogman (heavier)... but I was listening to Carcass and Morbid Angel at the time so .. not so heavy to me! There i also plenty of great tunes post Dogman, maybe not whole albums but some standards (for them)... check out "Groove Machine", they open tons of shows with it... it rocks. Personally I loved "Please come home... Mr Bulbous", they tuned down a full step (if I remember) and that one will rattle your balls. Anyway, I could write a book... seen them easily a hundred times, and would see them a hundred more...
The beginning of the beginning! GREAT effort, only beaten by Gretchen Goes To Nebraska.
KXM is super group featuring Dug Pinnick, George Lynch, and Ray Louzier. Check em out man they are fuckin incredible.
KXM-Dug Pinnock, George Lynch from Dokken, Ray Luzier from Korn. They ain’t so fuckin’ bad!
Dogman was a change to their sound to some degree, bringing some of that early 90s heavy grunge feel to the mix via a new producer (Brendan O'Brien). The first 4 albums are more akin to this sound.
This song is probably not the best introduction to King's X. If you want to check out something else from this album, I'd go with Goldilox or What Is This. Harder rocking tracks by King's throughout their catalog include: The World Around Me, Alone, Moanjam, Alright, Groove Machine, or Looking for Love. Great band!
King's X was always something like a band for other musicians to appreciate.
I think they all played with Phil Keaggy back in the day, right? Anyway, I liked this album and _Faith, Hope, Love_ When _Out of the Silent Planet_ came out it was nothing we had heard before.
For fans of this band you probably already know about Galactic Cowboys and for a more "pop" rock, PFR (formerly Pray For Rain) with tracks like ruclips.net/video/_TWG63jbvsQ/видео.html
Doug and Jerry played with Keaggy.
@@iluvj50 Thanks man.
@@dpwellman No prob! I know Ty thinks Keaggy is stellar and is a huge influence.
Spoonman?
Before.
None of the songs you were given to review were their best songs
