Totally made my year. Seeing Sean on SoT talking about the greatest album of the year is awesome. Thanks Pete.

[@chrisgeorge8819]

6x since the burden of restlessness tour. I! LOVE! THIS! BAND! thanks pete!

[@goldsaj]

Good to hear Pete, talk to Sean, one of the Buffalo guys. They are such a great band.

[@jeffreyrobinson9120]

Really enjoyed the interview. The story of the making of "Acheron" was fascinating. Since discovering King Buffalo a few years ago, they`ve become one of my favorite bands, love all their albums. Sean seemed like a really down to earth guy. I`m all in for whatever they put out next. Great job.

[@sspbrazil]

One of the best bands from the last decade. Great interview Pete.

[@mbgaomo]

Absolutely Love this band. This album "Regenerator" is my #1 album of 2022...Fantastic!

[@adammorgan6872]

Howling Giant opened some shows for KB this last year. I saw the show in Nashville, TN. Both bands blew the roof off of that place. 👏🏼

[@garyhellauer7514]

Great interview Pete! King Buffalo is one of my favorites and definitely a must see live experience!🤘

[@tommymaier3017]

had the pleasure of seeing King Buffalo open for Clutch last year in Buffalo N Y

[@dvader7272]

Great interview. What a guy. What a band.

[@markkemp7608]

Streamed the Regenerator album and really enjoyed the music. Thanks for the video! Going to have to buy some their stuff.

[@lahloonatic]

King Buffalo kicks ass and takes names.

[@kevinturchin]

Pete make sure you make that show in Albany. I saw 13 shows this year and the King Buffalo show was my favorite. They are very good live and they sounded incredible.

[@MrMusic193]

I just went to their website and ordered six CDs from them. Great band.

[@jeffkelty6636]

Love this band! Thanks, Pete!

[@allanboyd7528]

Great interview. Love their music. Would love to see them down here in Aus !

[@charvDKgtr]

These guys rock! Upstate NY represent album of the year for me

[@jasonnitert6184]

Thanks SOT for turning me onto KB…one of the best bands out there. See them live…they are incredible!

[@jordanmoran1983]

Seen King Buffalo sandwiched between Elder and Dvne a few years ago in a tiny club, superb.

[@Jamie.Laszlo]

I agree with Sean. It IS a pretty cool time for rock music.

[@TheZippo42]

Great band!!

[@bkccards64]

My fav band the past 2-3 years. Drove over to Omaha, NE by myself (girlfriend not a metal fan at all) a couple months ago and loved it.

[@tylermoulton7294]

Best interview I’ve seen with Sean amazing questions. All the questions i truly always wanted to know and since I’m also a huge fan I like keeping up with their tour and band news 📰

[@billnole2188]

Cool guy. Great job Pete. I've seen them twice this year with Regenerator coming out between. Seeing them again in February in Tampa.

[@stewartmack4821]

Great band just downloaded there discography excellent stuff. Would love to see them in uk 🤘

[@Tebay71]

King Buffalo is massively underrated. I’m seeing them in a few weeks at a small venue in my town, and I can’t fuckin wait

[@chrisgeorge8819]

Was it davenport Iowa? Tiny town and venue it was

[@TheZavlor]

Mutha Frakin King Buffalo!!!

[@daveycretin664]

I also went to Howe Caverns, as a youth, in the 80s. Mr. Sean’s story of recording an album down there was indeed intriguing. These guys have been on my radar to look into, now I’ll have to move them up to the top of the pack. Thanks for another cool interview, Pete. Indubitably. I know it’s been stated before, but l enjoy how you let your guests expound, expand and explain the answers to your queries. Cheers from Queens Noo Yawk, ova heyah! 🤘😎🤘

[@r.j.macready5541]

Just saw them In Cleveland. Great show. Wish they had played Quickening and Orion. Quickening should absolutely be used in the upcoming Cavill Highlander Remake

[@bizzjoe]

Savage band

[@Eaglemonlarry]

Love King Buffalo! Thanks for the great interview Sean and Pete!

[@NoineNoineNoine]

thanks Pete. always loved this band! great interview!

[@chrisdg100]

THE greatest rock band of the last decade

[@drumsandcymbals1968]

Great interview 🤘

[@thewal1ofsleep]

What a great Christmas treat! King Buffalo have become my favorite band ever since I discovered them via your Ranking the Albums show. I saw KB live in Boston back on 12/10 and they certainly did not disappoint. Truly captivating music, and Sean is a true sorcerer on stage.

[@iceclimbers22]

Probably my favorite new band SOT has introduced me to. So original, but originality built on genres I love. Got tickets to see them in January!

[@domielakrabi3276]

Thank you Pete for this great interview. King Buffalo is, along with Sleeping Karma, one of my favorite new discovered bands! I'm waiting for the guys to come over to Europe! Great records, great music!

[@TheChadmiral69]

These guys are so good! I got to see them live in San Francisco last month (with Spirit Mother) and plan to catch them any time they come out this way!

[@collinwood60]

Pete thanks for having Sean on. I only discovered King Buffalo about a year ago and have bought all their albums since. They are my favorite band currently. Their albums are produced so well and sound awesome when cranked. I really like Sean's vocals as well because you can actually understand him and don't need the lyric sheet like most other singers. Can't wait for the next album.

[@JohnMedlandGuitar]

Great show, thanks Pete and Sean - I went on Bandcamp a couple weeks ago and bought the entire KB discography after hearing Regenerator. Great stuff cheers 🍻

[@shaunogle530]

Wonderful soundscapes on their albums. Regenerator is in my top three albums of 2022. Wonderfully relaxed interview with a guy who explains the generation of their sound so well. Here's to the next trilogy.

[@tylermoulton7294]

❤

[@chrisflood9205]

Ok I’ll try king Buffalo again

[@tmc1054]

This album is unquestionably in my top 10 of the year. Great band but why are their CDs and vinyl so bloody expensive? Why?

[@sotdude7]

Cds are $10 direct from their website, which is very cheap, and vinyl $25, which isn’t bad either.

[@tmc1054]

@@sotdude7 went on the website and just got hit by $33 dollars for shipping alone to the UK, making it $ 63 dollars for three CDs :(

[@kylesussmeier1969]

@@tmc1054 they do the shipping stuff all themselves cuz they aren't on a label. Probably cost them extra upfront to ship overseas

[@terrymoon8714]

[@franciskocher200]

😃👍

[@michaelvinson4320]

Pete is always so cool and collected. But in this interview, he let's a bit of fanboy enthusiasm show--and this is BY NO MEANS a slight on Pete. I respect Pete's opinion greatly on most things, and he's just confirmed, albeit unintentionally, that King Buffalo is THE BEST band in the last 20 years. By the way, I'm 54 and really do not gush over bands after the 1990s

[@daanthing6002]

Pete's favorite is my least favorite. Says something about their catalogue. Good band 👌
