Criminally. Underrated. Band.

[@davesavittiere4175]

So fucking TRUE!!

[@donalderpel4858]

still new, the word is spreading ;) - greetings from Germany

[@calvinlc]

Yeah dude.

[@calvinlc]

@@donalderpel4858 I've a friend in England who is a huge fan too. Rock on !

[@DaveRS575]

Indeed..

[@wigwam104]

So, I’m 58 years old. I’ve been walking my dog in the neighborhood. Come across a couple of neighbors walking dog’s. We decided to walk together. Conversation lead’s to her oldest son was in town and just left for European tour. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Turns out her son is Scott the drummer. So I looked up their music. 😱🤯I’m blown away by this music. To think this guy was playing drums at our block party over 20 years ago. I’m now a fan. Hope I don’t ruin it for you guy’s (being the old fart fan) plenty of my friends are turned on to this music now. Hopefully you guy’s stay together for a long time. This is great stuff!

[@brianbrown7130]

Im 50 and jam to these guys everyday lol

[@walterlippmann9496]

thats what having a dog can do - just saying

[@mariuscervantes3845]

King Buffalo and All Them Witches... ones of the best contemporary bands.

[@TerreurAbyssale]

maybe with Slift, Mars Red Sky, King Gizz, Naxatras, osees .. and many others ...

[@Chris-wg6ez]

No lyricly no comparisson

[@bungle0261]

​@@TerreurAbyssaleyou certainly know what's up... Let's add Khruangbin, QOTSA, Kikagaku moyo (sadly no more) , Hermanos Gutierrez

[@pessolano461]

Been listening to random bands on KZbin Music and both King Buffalo and All them Witches popped up and something that I've discovered is that if the band has "witch" in its name or if a song has the word "mountain" in it's name, you're in for a good time.

[@b9mpact]

the recording quality of these is fucking sick! props to whoever engineered this

[@Tusk_III]

^Exactly - Wish more bands would augment tours with bad ass studio sessions that they can monetize on YT. Would help mitigate all the douche-bags that think they got the best cell phone video ever at the show.

[@b9mpact]

was meaning the fidelity and tuning, not who produced/ came up with the idea. the recording quality is superb.

[@lukemanify]

Got that right bro

[@RQH781]

If you like music and you are lucky enough to be able to listen to this music. You can consider yourself very lucky.

[@jokohomo9591]

This is the best band I have heard in such a long time. It gives me hope.

[@goldenratio5117]

It should be mandatory to listen to King buffalo on every camping , road ,or psychadelic trip.

[@miles7872]

I was listening to this on the way home and ended up in the next town, married, with two kids, two tours of duty, and a new job.

[@graysonc8154]

The outro in Eye of the Storm is possibly the grooviest teamwork I've seen in a band in a while. I consider this a perfect album. Pure esecape from outro to intro

[@MayoNaze2175]

The sole dislike on this video is disheartening. How could someone be so disinterested in this genuinely new and powerful sound as to dislike it? Poor soul

[@miguelcardenas5041]

and now there's 4 - what the hell?

[@LaCroixIIJohn]

5 guys jealous of the hair

[@stefanjr]

Unfortunately there will always be those whom dislike just to piss people off. Best thing is to ignore all together - let them suffocate.

You just made it worse,lol.

[@DoomyMcSlvdge]

This band continues to blow my mind! Currently my favorite band right now

[@tomsreviews4330]

That one bass part towards the end of Sun Shivers is excellent!!

[@jimgagne3801]

I have been looking for this sound longer than these guys have been alive.

[@stevesmith8493]

A friend turned me on to them last night. Thanks Tanner Wade!

INCREDIBLE SET!!!!!! BRAVO!!!!!! ENCORE! ENCORE! 00:00 Longing to Be the Mountain 09:40 Sun Shivers 13:05 Quickening 17:20 Eye of the Storm LYRICS TO LONGING TO SEE THE MOUNTAIN Looking to the snow Rising on the hill Head on Follow distant song Digging through the frozen ground Longing to find the mountain Golden anchors bind Worn and weighted spine Head on Restless roaming song Looking on to distant hills Longing to be the mountain Desperately climbing the towering stone, everything left behind Anxiously rubbing pears into the soil, trying to pacify Head on Chasing the distant song Breaking on to fade into the mountain LYRICS TO SUN SHIVERS Have you ever looked for the sun Your eyes narrow and glowing red Have you ever wanted to run To feel the arms of the open steppe As you break out They will break down Into nothing Head into the crimson sun When you were building the throne They left you empty and hollow No more working the stone You hear the azimuth calling As you break out They will break down Into nothing Head into the crimson sun LYRICS TO QUICKENING Wandering alone Desolate sky above Nothing to guide, destitute eyes Aimlessly rambling Turning to stone, everything Calling for you, quickening Traveling through the fields Sharpening iron and steel Harvesting bones, to calcify You wait for the gathering Turning the steel, glistening To know everything, to be everything Drifting into the flame Dancing with gilded blade Into the fire, abandoning sky Prepared for the reckoning Calling to me, quickening To know everything, to be everything LYRICS TO EYE OF THE STORM Tethered the light of the moon Gathering embers you wade through the twilight Waiting for the morning to come Shepherding banshees you pine, for the eye of the storm Comfort in the arms of the void Following the wake left by the weight of the sword Mountains buried below Levying the lightning you burn, for the eye of the storm Staring at the ashes below Lungs christened by the smell of the fire Morning didn't come Leveraging the mountain to find, you are one with the storm

[@Rich-le6ud]

Thanks man

[@alexandersilverbackalienabduct]

Well done sir!

[@anantmishra1498]

@John Reuter Do you have the lyrics of Pocket Full of Knife by any chance? It's from their first EP 'Demo'.

[@cristianvonrosen943]

Thanks

[@jeepmor]

I see that ATW shirt on the drummer. You guys should tour together, oh man that would be an awesome venue.

[@RealWokeIsJesus]

That would fucking insane

[@HerschelObscura]

Come back to Toronto. Please. Your show was a solid highlight in a year of amazing concerts

[@silenceismycanvas]

King buffalo. Combining Dead Can Dance, Stoned Jesus, Tool, Black Sabbath and Sleep all in one band, while doing their thing..... Can't wait to see them next month.

When I think of listening to a real Stoner song this is the sound that I have in mind. I'm addicted to this song. I can't believe I just met this fantastic band this year. Greetings from Brasil!

[@MYASSHOLEBURNS1]

And just like that 28 minutes passed by and I don't think I even looked away once.

[@mayurlive]

This sounds like a band that knows what they want to sound like, went out there, got the right equipment, and just GOT IT RIGHT. Thank you, this helped me a lot.

[@RQH781]

Yeah. Words never will define music

[@howardpitfield9921]

Just found KB - awesomer as fuck! Yes i'm 66 and discovering this - utter beauty!

[@catmouth]

How does this not have more fucking upvotes?!?

Cool All them witches T-Shirt, another great band

[@jonkopp569]

They actually tour quite a lot. I've seen a few shows with both on the bill.

[@michaelfell1083]

Probably what Pelican would sound like with vocals. I cant get enough of this band. Awesome in every respect. cannot wait to see them with Clutch in October

[@spumemonk11]

Perfect example of a perfect Bass player.

[@gowanian]

My favorite new musical group!

[@petertuckergoettler5720]

I'm Impressed By Your Awesome Performance, merci.

[@toaztelg]

The fact that these guys makes me think of Elder, ATW, Om, etc is just a sign that we're talking about high quality music. This is brilliant stuff.

[@Dominik-ys6nu]

What does "Om" stand for?

[@darrenkiefer7648]

This music stole my weed I’m sure of it!

[@peterloron8443]

Each better than the last! More! More!

cool to see the drummer with an all them witches shirt, the good bands know the good bands. real recognize real in other words

[@armata6530]

Ben from ATW managed them for a short period of time, as well as produced Longing To Be The Mountain. They’ve also opened for ATW. Two of my current favorite bands.

[@EDPublications]

So good. The sound is amazing, the band is tight; you can literally hear everything. Even the cinematography is on point!

[@RQH781]

Try to save the best, for the last. Unless, everything is the best

[@alwinvandertoorn3968]

Just started listening to these guys, and I'm amazed by their sound as well as their productivity - all high quality. I'm an old geezer, going on sixty, and I think I 'recognize' some influences for their anazing sound. Great stuff!

[@christopherduesterhaus7833]

hands down light years before anyone can even come close to achieving what just happened in this room. best power trio ever ! I'm saying f****** ever ! quite possibly the best recorded music ever just happened thank you covid-19 for the quarantine sessions you guys are freaking awesome

[@VangeliRock]

Damn this is good.

[@watzefukk67]

My neighbours like it! No one's complaining...

[@bfinney]

Absolutely awesome! Saw you guys 3 times last year- you signed my Stoned and Dusted cup in Columbus. Keep it up!

[@sympaheichereic1643]

god damn, this band is so amazing. my mind was blown away by this! especially the drums in "eye of the storm" took me into another dimension. so underrated. please keep on with this technical awesomeness.

[@patrickmullowney]

These sound epic, freaking kudos to the recording team. Definitely needed for quarantine. Currently I'm on conference calls on MUTE while cranking this.

[@paulauger2609]

I love the Blade Runner intro sequence, even have The Ladd Company effect on your band name...so great.

[@julianBernick]

Fortunate to see these guys live 3 times. Quality dudes and they will alter you with their live show, loud and dreamy at the same time.

[@tylermoulton7294]

Of all the comments i can testify to this. Saw them the 12th at the Aggie. I never will be the same..plus now I know King Buffalo are for the people and shredd! True Rock Gods of if may say

[@TheSasquatchNation]

My Longing to be the Mountain LP didn’t leave my platter for weeks after receiving the album and I spun it daily. Awesome album.

[@mikeanderson1660]

Most of the time I only like 1-2 songs from a band but yours is different. You have so many good pieces.

[@howardhendricks323]

You guys are amazing, thank you for these awesome sessions! Looking forward to the last two. I hope you pick up some new fans.

[@MeredithAvila]

The look on Scott's face at 5:00 was also the look on my face through that section

I heard them on Deutschlandfunk this afternoon, a one-hour documentary on King Buffalo. Rock isn't dead yet - it just goes to the hairdresser every now and then!
