King’s X: An Overlooked Legend or Overblown Metal Band?

In this video, I express my enthusiasm for the often-overlooked band, King’s X, which I consider a truly unappreciated groove metal phenomenon. The trio, consisting of Doug Pinnick, Ty Tabor, and Jerry Gaskill, has been creating phenomenal heavy, guttural music since the late 70s, well ahead of its time. In fact, many popular bands like Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam have credited King’s X with influencing grunge music. Without King’s X, bands such as Pearl Jam and Soundgarden might not even exist. With over 30 years in the industry, this band certainly deserves more recognition than it has received.
