King's X - Three Sides of One (Band Interview Pt 1)

[@HANGNAIL]

I have no words for how much I love this band.

[@SlippstersVideos]

It's a vibration 💯💥

[@coreyclark6505]

Same….

[@jasonrodenbeck5064]

Me too.

[@glennman0922]

My favorite band of all time

[@b.scottfarthingsworth]

Those words have not been given to us yet - we'll get them in the afterlife

[@ericnathanguel]

Their music saved my life circa 1990. I'll never forget.

[@ematia]

Greatest band in the world. Unbelievable what they did - for decades. How each record is still something completely new, never losing the soul of the band. And so lovely people. When you meet them in person, they listen to you and appreciate. Never seen, heard or met anyone, any band comparable. King’s X just stands out. For over 40 years. Thank you so much!

[@MT-or7lv]

King's X has been a part of my life for the past 35 years. I love them.

[@trblemkr1d106]

I can't explain it but some people hear King's X and you can see their body light up and that " Oh my God " look on their face just radiates ... I love music . I have since I was a small child and King's X feels like MY music . Thanks for the new music guys ...it's hard holding your breath for 14 years . PK

[@kellystover3002]

So perfectly stated. Into the band since Gretchen & just ordered the new one. I read recently that they are considered godfathers of grunge or at least highly influential...I literally have never thought this or heard it even. Kings X to me have been & probably will always be utterly singular...in & of themselves.

[@jimdartouzos2127]

King's X.....What an Amazing band....They are absolutely Awesome.

[@erichand7548]

One of thee best live bands of all time. It’s a spiritual experience

[@ajflanagan]

These guys still eat together at the nearest diner after ever show. It's love that holds it all together.

[@Deetroiter]

You just had to let us know ♥️

[@wxmaggot5669]

Jerry is a huge part of why I picked up drumsticks. Top 3 drummer for me. Ty and Dug are incredibly influential to so many others, the band as a whole is... It's just incredible that we're getting new music from this band. That said, check out all of their solo and side ventures! Jerry's 2 albums are favorites of mine. Thanks for years of great music to these fine fellas!

[@Jaymz996]

Love Jerry and Come Somewhere is a masterpiece. And Fortunate to see Jerry playing out with local bands here often.

[@Mysterywhiteboy78]

I love this band....the first time i heard Gretchen goes to Nebraska many years ago i knew they were special. I liked hearing Jerry's opening comments ' right is wrong , wrong is right 'about the world today.....

[@simondavies5444]

Can’t believe it’s 32 years since I saw these guys at a certain gig at a venue called the Astoria in London. They pulled the Astoria down years ago but the memories will last forever.

[@Pfeffa]

Rick Beato needs to do a show about these guys. Write him!

[@jerseymetalmike5111]

"The most underrated band of all time", you've heard that before. So happy to hear new King's X music! I've been a fan since the opening notes of Out of the Silent Planet. Thank you for keeping the faith, and feeding our souls!!!

[@rudygracia5573]

SO much RESPECT for dUg;For his musical Genius,tremendous work ethic!SO many side projects!Greatest singer/bassist/writer(IMO).Concerning the questionable?stuff I've read about DP;I don't care,I'm just grateful for his mind boggling work.Ty and Jerry are equally as important,and much gratitude toward them.

[@SaintLewisMusic]

First 3 singles so far are easily some of the best writing, playing, & production I've heard from these guys since TAPE HEAD... cannot WAIT to hear the rest of it!

[@NijiiroGinga]

3人が観れて感謝。 新しいアルバムをありがとう。 日本より心から応援してます。 ご健勝とご多幸をお祈りします。

[@BillHustonPodcast]

I ❤️❤️❤️ these guys. Virtuoso musicians, and the kindest, sweetest gentleman you'd ever meet. Much respect and gratitude for all the great tunes for DECADES! I can remember being on a King's X mailing list and USENET group in the earliest days of the internet. This was like 1992ish. I was working at TI in Dallas (Forest Lane), and my coworker Robert Loyd, and my roommate Gary Grace from Jonesboro were both massive King's X fans. I will always cherish the memory of watching Galactic Cowboys in Houston with JERRY sitting next to me!! I almost blew a dube with Dug et al and friends from Vel.Ham. outside, but i was too star struck!

[@dh-flies]

All the great side projects they've all been involved in are great. But, not as great as they are as Kings X. The new album blew me away. They came home and did what they started doing all over again. It's magical. I know pulling off their great vocals live is harder with age, but they are still enthralling. And I love watching the audience. We are all in the same place with these guys. The love shows in every face.

[@DaveTinNY]

The new songs were great, live in NYC. Cannot wait for this release. Fan since 1988 when I first heard Goldilox on college radio in NJ.. Seton Hall University's Pirate Radio, WSOU 89.5FM. I was "hooked." :)

[@psw6392]

I remember back in the early 90's,..so many artist/bands "stole" from, or were influenced by KingsX, and I don't need to name names, or songs, but we all knew it was happening, and the fans understood this as well. I'm so glad KingsX is officially back kicking ass.😃👍👍👍👍👍

[@TiltedBry]

Best rock band on the planet. Hope you are feeling well Ty!

[@JohnDaneKXRM]

How did I miss this. I'm getting the album.

[@rudygracia5573]

I'm right there with Jerry's opening statement.All I can say for MY music "career",thank GOD for my fitness/weightlifting🏋️‍♂️💪lifestyle!I'm SO glad I followed Kenny Roger's advice he gave(on a radio program),back in the late 80's;"Never put all your eggs in one basket,Diversify!".Kenny gave the example;"I've made more money with my restaurant(KR Roasters chicken),than I EVER made in musical career!

[@markmartin6365]

Love them too! Love seeing someone touched by their music for the first time.

[@eyonnealchristmas3974]

I love King's X. This new album has become a spiritual experience for me.

[@xianshep]

I learned about them via a blurb in Musician magazine or somewhere in 1990 calling them "Heavy Metal Beatles" and I was hooked. The combination of heavy music with positive messages REALLY helped me weather my father's death a year later (and he even got to dig FHL before he died).

[@mjm5081]

🙏 ✌ ❤ 🎶

[@DemskePaul2017]

Jerry hitting the nail on the head @1:35

[@rudygracia5573]

Couldn't possibly agree with you more!I commented about Jerry's statement,AND the way he said it.I felt like it was ME speaking through HIM!And I KNOW I'm not alone!

[@zaneheitsche6151]

One of my all time favorites

[@unrealexplorer]

Killer Band So looking forward to hearing the New Stuff , Doug Jerry and Ty looking very well .

[@ProgSnob14]

So glad this finally came out, best wishes to Ty!

[@kevinking6259]

I'm amazed at how good this album is. As with all KX records I listen rinse repeat. The more I listen, the more I feel it. I think this may be some of their best work. This album feels like a real true deep KX album.

[@Rocknrollerrink]

Can't wait to get the physical copy in my hands and hear the whole thing!

[@frankrusso920]

Looking forward to hearing what you guys recorded! Best wishes to all!

[@berndgaal7689]

Best band ever!!! I love you guys sooo much!!!!

[@andsoitgoes2177]

ahh, dUg missed jerry and ty. I missed all 3 of them together. Everybody did some cool stuff working alone, but King's X , for me, will always be my generation's Led Zeppelin.

[@joachimlindback]

What a gift for my birthmonth. Been much too long without a new King's X.

[@jasonrodenbeck5064]

I appreciate talking about how they've changed personally. I feel like that's a thing I'm noticing about myself, too.

[@junglejoey]

I just got the CD a few days ago and love every track on it. Well done for sure! These guys knock them out when they have new music coming out!

[@Jonny130272]

Love King's X! Can't wait for the new album!

[@goodmusemusic]

👍👍🤘🤘 So psyched for this album!!

[@3d4future]

Holy... Boyz: THANK YOU FOR THE SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE WITH YOUR MUSIC! There was a time during this pandemic, that I feared of not being alive anymore to enjoy your music... and most fearing: not your NEW music... BUT I already got two more songs in my life and life is good again... there is so much energy for me and my doings in what you do... thanks. I love you and will love be with you all the time... peace to this crazy world, please! A hug to you all, world. Again: Thanks.

[@skyDN1974]

Can’t wait for the new album!!

[@mick1406]

Such great news. Been following u guys since Silent Planet so cant wait to hear your new stuff!!

[@GMHG777]

Such a killer band and the 3 songs that’s over heard are killer especially All Gods Children so good !! Totally psyched for the album and to see them live ! Ty get well buddy you’ve got so much mor to do my friend !!!

[@TheandricOfficial]

KING'S X FOREVER!!!

[@vernetexon4914]

So glad my band's back. Please stay!

[@russellzauner]

Next time you're in Oregon, I've got cookies. Thanks for the ride.

[@resynthesizer4565]

Met these backstage guys at The Country Club, probably about 88 or 89. Little room upstairs, IIRC. The band I used to play with opened for them. (New Dynasty) ND put on a good show, but Kings-X blew me away. Really cool guys, too.

[@rudygracia5573]

Probably NO BAND enjoys playing music MORE than these guys.To write for and record THAT many albums!And they're SO laid back.They're very unassuming,soft spoken;Then they plug in and BOOM!🤯😳.

[@jarrahdrum]

fantastic band and what an album

Excellent.... one of the handful of bands I will preorder a copy from without hesitation.... "Do We Listen To The Silent Wind?"

[@FCPFishing]

Looking forward to hearing the record!

[@steveleadbeater8662]

Afters Neil Pearts untimely death, i'm so happy these guys gave us one more blast of greatness.

[@JeffMcLeod]

So excited! It's been way too long!

[@georgebarabas]

Glad to hear they're back...

[@dinofond]

I love this band like I love no other

[@Meeeeeeeestery]

I can't litterally wait for this album to come out

[@vernetexon4914]

Oh thank you for interview too.

Love the new album, funny I actually forget about all the other albums after hearing it in all honesty.

[@Squirrelconga]

Man! Can't wait to hear this!

[@seanpeterlynch]

Really looking forward to this.

[@mjm5081]

[@justherb666]

If you need me, I’ll be down by the mailbox waiting for the album to arrive.

[@arceneaux777]

Yessssssssss!

[@ck9383]

This band kicks so much ass

[@chicagoui9299]

Maybe one last Kings X record with Brendan O'Brien!!! Please!!

[@davidbrucemusicvideo]

02:30 I love Dug! 😂😂 🙌🏻

[@casim8842]

I bought OOTSP back in '89 on import. Never heard anything like it then or since.

[@ricohorton]

I had to replace my album after it arrived. Did not sync on turntable speed 33. Played really slow speed so you know what that sounded like. Waiting for replacement to arrive.

[@Danny-fs1hk]

🤘🏾

[@lennygomez7264]

Ma, Brothers..!

[@rudygracia5573]

Yeah..Right off the TOP;I'm right THERE with Jerry's opening statement!!The last few years(longer)has been like WTF!!??When asked about things,Jerry's opening pause and bewilderment says SO much.I'm VERY concerned about today's,and the future's music(as an artform)world.🤯 Ty's accent/voice sounds like Joel Osteen to me!Probably a Houston/Texas thing.?haha!

[@Blkojo]

Accent? Mississippi.

[@chicagoui9299]

Can we get a New KXM dUg!!?!?!

[@michaelr.4878]

King's X are a lot like the Canadian band, Sloan. They are one of the best bands on the planet, musicians love and understand them, but the general public didn't catch on. I don't know if their music simply goes over their heads (hehe) or what...but it is sad when some of the best music recorded in the last 50 years is the music that get the commercial success that it deserves. These guys should be multi millionaires. Performance, songwriting...it is all there.

[@DavidJackson]

Does anybody know what the problem was? Why did it take so long? Sounds like Doug was in, Ty was in, was it Jerry? What was the hold up?

[@mariebrown3405]

Hey its Marie brown uncle Ricky's niece how are u guys GOD BLESS

[@glennman0922]

So…. Sorry to bring this up but last I heard Ty could not tour because of an undisclosed medical situation that needed to be monitored. Is that still an issue? Resolved? I sure hope so. My favorite guitarist of all time.

[@mikeoscarparijs1313]

Jay Phebus needs 2B taken back as the 4th bandmember period!!!PILLOW shares his 50 cents

[@lennygomez7264]

L e g e d e d i e o ....!

[@chicagoui9299]

Leave it to Jerry to be honest AF!!!

[@johncole015]

The original grunge band with actual talent.

[@williambradley8004]

I love their first 5 Albums,they lost me after that.

[@user-yz3et4lq9y]

I see the cross on Gerry, & the 'praise the lord' joke between Jerry & dUg, aren't they all 'born again atheists' like myself (one time Christians who eventually 'saw the light/truth' & lack of proof of god and moved onto other truths)? So I'm assuming Gerry is still a believer?

[@paulsmith626]

WHEN THE HELL IS PART TWO???!!!.. GOSH!!!!

[@ShiddyFinkelstein]

The only band out of the '90s that I care for. Right there with the best bands ever. Ty's the only guitarist I found interesting from that era. Just sayin'.

[@fumanpoo4725]

Damn...they aged. What is up with that?😊

[@user-yz3et4lq9y]

I'm totally disillusioned & majorly confused with the current state of the world as well as Jerry.

[@DacusSongs24]

This is their worst album. No magic since they turned on their so called "faith". They say now they never wanted to be a "christian" band, even tho there are several interviews that claim they were. They were going to a christian college and playing with Phil Keaggy, Petra, and Morgan Cryar. They didn't mind taking your money with christian themed first 5 albums, but now turn on what made them so good. It's sad. I have met them and talked to them. Nice guys, but I don't like 30 years of deception. Their last 7 or so albums just seemed to get worse and worse.

[@sourcescience]

My favourite band ever, and every time I see an interview I know why they didn’t make it. They are so boring in person. Still, glad there is a new record. Don’t leave it so long next time guys, you can always crowdfund.

[@skyDN1974]

Bro you sub to Jordan Peterson, your opinion is irrelevant 😂

[@DemskePaul2017]

Because they're not fake, pretentious sell-outs? So be it.

[@sourcescience]

@@skyDN1974 is that what you say to people with who, you disagree? ‘Nee ner, you like Jordan Peterson.’ Er… right.

[@sourcescience]

@@DemskePaul2017 maybe not but if you want to be a bona fide rock star you have to be a bit of a tit. They definitely aren’t sell outs but they are flat broke and working in their pension years for a reason. Sometimes the best songs, passion, skills and originality are not enough. If it’s any consolation I remember well their close connection with Galactic Cowboys, another underrated band I love and they are even worse. Monty Colvin has turned into a bitter old right wing, preaching, grouchy old man who lives in a tiny rented apartment and runs a podcast that is basically old man shouts at cloud. Ted Nugent is very similar, but he has a quirky charm and he is entertaining to many. That’s what sells, for better or worse. John Lennon, Liam Gallagher et al are dickheads but they aren’t boring, so they get the big cheques. Being boring is the one sin that audiences will not forgive. I’ve loved this band from their first album release and I love them being music’s best kept secret. I’m just stating what I think. Watch their Headbanger’s Ball interview. It’s like watching paint dry. No laughs, jokes or anything. Like it or not, you can’t be a rock star if you’re boring. They are quietly a very original, creative and influential band that nobody knows and I strongly suspect that that is fine by them. Long live the Kings.
