Their previous album to this, "Gretchen Goes to Nebraska" is a certified classic. "Over My Head", "Summerland", "The Difference (In the Garden of St. Anne's-on-the-Hill)", and "I'll Never Be the Same" are among the tracks on that album that you would love. I hadn't heard this one yet so I'm pleased to hear it too.

Agreed with all the above! I approached King's X via this album Faith hope love and it's fabulous. The heavy, bluesy guitar riffs and melodies are so soulful. Though they've toured quite often here in the UK, I've not seen them live...yet!

Doug's arms were so long his bass was on the floor practically 🤣🤣🤘

Kings X is an amalgam---makes me think of what you might get if you combined the Beatles and Aerosmith, sent them to Texas and had them listen to a lot of Dixie Dregs and Earth, Wind and Fire. A lot of elements combined into a very unique hard rock sound.

I have fond memories of this album when it was first released in 1990. Their prior album, Gretchen goes to Nebraska, was a such a breath of fresh air back then. With the Faith, Hope, and Love album they seemed to be poised for major success. But unfortunately, it didn't happen, which I always thought was criminal. I hope you guys continue to dive into their music as they were one of the best and original bands that came out during that period bar none

Here's the thing about that extended time changing outro -- they do that live, exactly, every time. Like precision. There are three voices, and they are also the three players. Also they're great people. And the other record is Dogman, but you should listen to Out of the Silent Planet and Gretchen goes to Nebraska first.

Hi Nick, Hi Lexi. It's brilliant you are reacting to King's X....a brilliant but underated band. A mixture of styles...prog, funky, metal. So many cracking albums...Dogman is superb ...the title track is a good start. Just a fact to link to Dream Theater guys ...the lead singer Doug Pinnick is the vocalist who sang on Lines In The Sand...on the album Falling Into Infinity. Thank you so much for all your reactions. Looking forward to your next offering. Peace and love from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️

I woke up one morning in 1984 I think,to "Goldilox".Mt older brother had borrowed "Out of the Silent Planet" from a friend and was listening to it as he got ready for school. I was blown away.Instantly awake and wanting more of this music. Been a huge fan for over 35 years.This is the greatest band you never heard of. "Ear Candy" and "Tape Head" are two of my favorite albums, but you have fifteen to choose from."Gretchen Goes to Nebraska" is a no-brainer...start to finish.Just a great recording. P.S. They are a trio,and all three sing.

Their second album Gretchen Goes to Nebraska is technically a concept album. I read the story and still don't have a clue. That aside, the album is outstanding and should be heard as a whole, though many of the songs stand out on their own. One of my favorite albums. Scott Ian of Anthrax said a few years ago that they were the best live band he ever toured with. Like Anthrax and Metallica, King's X got their start on Megaforce Records.

And beyond that, Ty Tabor (their guitarist) is one of the most criminally underrated guitarists - ever! And as much as I like Kings X, which is ALOT, Ty Tabor's solo stuff is, in my humble opinion, is even better! I will send you some suggestions!!! Have seen both but Ty solo is great also! He is also in a side band called The Jelly Jam, which is him, the bass from Dream Theather, and Rod Morganstern on drums who used to play with both the Dixie Dregs and then Winger. I gotta get you guys some Ty Tabor solo suggestions to react to. Again, love all that you guys do!!!

Aaaah yesssss. Thank so much for doing this. You’ve now entered the rabbit hole that is King’s X. As a few have said. The album before this - ‘Gretchen’ is considered by many as their best and one of the greatest albums ever made. I would love to see you do ‘Summerland’ and ‘Plieades’ from this album to have a true KX experience. Also ‘Goldilox’ from their first album is one of the best songs ever written. Doug Pinnick - vocals and bass was 37 when their debut landed. Think about that! You should absolutely check out ‘Dogman’ and ‘pillow’ from the album Dogman as many consider this as close second behind ‘Gretchen’ as their greatest work. First 6 albums are all 10/10 and you can’t say that about many artists at all. Most underrated band of all time? Damn straight! Enjoy the journey 💙🎶🤘

Its THIS era that people get to hear their "3 part harmonies" :). Apparently the band said they are going to feature more of that again!

I've been watching you two for a few months now. I'm a huge fan of DT but was already a fan of King's X when I discovered Dream Theater. From what I've noticed, you seem to really connect emotionally to music in much the same way I do. King's X has a huge array of music in which to choose but I would love to watch you hear Flies & Blue Skies for the first time. My recommendations for new King's X fans (including Nick n Lex) would be: Dogman Over My Head It's Love Goldilox Groove Machine Prisoner Summerland Mission We Are Finding Who We Are Moanjam Dream Theater collaborated with Doug Pinnick on the Falling Into Infinity album for the track, Lines In The Sand. King's X opened for DT for a few shows during the summer of 2002. If memory serves, John Myung (who is friends with Ty Tabor) was instrumental in introducing King's X to Dream Theater.

In an interview with the TeamRock site in 2016, Ty Tabor of King's X selected the album as his top pick in a "5 Essential Guitar Albums" list, stating, "I had never heard anybody think about playing guitar the way that [Holdsworth] plays on that record."

Drop tune pioneers but still melodic. To many great tunes to name. I'm sure fans will fill you in. "Goldilox" for instance.

While Nirvana gets a credit for the 90's shift in culture.,Kings X, The Cult, Living Colour and others came out in the late 80's. predated grunge, opening the door Nirvana and others walked through. 1) King (88) 2) Goldilox (88) 3) Over My Head (89) 4 Summerland (89)

Nicknlex. Many years ago at a Christmas Eve gathering my friends turned me on to this song. First time hearing King's X and was hooked ever since. I had the same reaction to the songs ending. I am a musician and King's X will always be in my top 5 bands of my life. Please do more King's X reactions. Many great song choices below in the comments.

Although they have progressive elements Kings X are a melting pot of many genres ..... one of a kind band (unless you count some elements of The Awful Truth / Galactic Cowboys ..... and maybe some Freak Kitchen).

And Atomic Opera! They were all from the Houston area around the time King's X started getting some recognition. I've seen King's X 12 or 13 times since 1989 and got to see Galactic Cowboys open for them several times. Those were nights of such wonderful vocal harmonies on top of crunchy grooves. Love it!

The first time I heard King's X in the mid 90s was in a weekly 2 hour radioshow of BFBS (British forces radio), which I listened to for 15 years. The DJ Kal Sutherland introduced me to so many bands, I would not have heard in the pre-internetradio-era; there was no german radio station in my area, which played such great music ... I found out from A as Ayreon to Z (I don't know) but T stands for Trivium, another underrated american metal band. I asked my older brother for a King's X CD and he gave me Dogman. I started listening and I was blown away. Like Alexia said in the reaction video "such a strong beginning", that's so typical for King's X. As Nick said, they are a bit proggy, but I for myself called it grooveRock or riffRock, because that's the trademark of many of their songs. I know 10 of their CDs, but Dogman is my favourite, I like the mix of heavy groovy songs, slower songs, a pure blues song, even a 51 second punk song. We were born to be loved is representative for King's X music and the end reminds me of the end of a great Opeth song - Deliverance - Opeth fans will know, what I'm talking about. Looking forward for more KIng's X ..... and maybe Opeth 🙂

Live version is even better then the studio version. Also “Over my Head” live at 94 Woodstock simply blew everyone away.

Instant subscription..... Love from England, been a fan since their first album and i haven't missed a tour since the second album.... I call them England's house band because despite being American i have never seen a gig over here that isn't packed out or totally passionate about these guys.... Criminally underrated and if anything the live versions are even better.... Welcome to the wonderful family of king's x fanatics 👍

When I saw them live in Germany late 90s they were playing it exactly like on the record. I was shocked, especially because of the long ending part with all the variations. They only played one mistake and continued laughing themselves to death 😂.

You both are so awesome!!! KingsX are soooo great live…including this song!!! Their early stuff is perfection …but their 4th album and something off the album Earcandy is a treat as well. Big Big sound from this trio…they all sing those awesome harmonies,a nod to the Beatles. Also listen to Dugs awesome 12string bass!! Ty is a legendary guitarist…that sound is so unique….and Jerry is ALWAYS in the pocket just a tad behind the beat….such a groove machine!!!!

Sly and the Family Sabbath... Such an interesting band. They really made an effort to continue exploring their artistic side and not get overly 'stuck.' As they grew, they let the music grow, too. Maybe check out "What is This?" from the 1st album from 1988, for a glimpse at another side of their style. Still big riff, harmonies and heavy groove. Then try 'Ocean' from the Tape Head album for a contrast. Lastly, "Julie" from the 'XV' album will round it for for a least one song from each of the members on lead vocals. Great reaction!

I saw them live three times. For first timers of King's X I would recommend Cigarettes, Dogma and Goldilox. They often finish their set with Goldilox and let the audience sing. Amazing show!
