Artist: Knockout Kings
Label: Doll House Records
Length: 17 minutes
Energetic, quick-witted and sharp-sounding, the Knock Out Kings five song EP, The Kid's Got Heart, blasts out of your speakers like a house-a-fire. Ultra clean production with well constructed rock and roll songs is the game here.
MTV's My Super Sweet 16 cameras roll, a sea of kids bounce and scream and this Fort Worth, TX band gets back on the bus and head to another venue as The Kings endlessly promote their new disc. With a sound akin to The Hives and The Jets, the Knock Out kings hard-edged, melodic music assure this band will outlast the hype.
The five songs here top out at just around 17 minutes and the band makes good use of it. All the tracks bring an intense, fearless,pop rock sound. Lyrically quite deep-dealing with hurt, life's dangers and retribution.
Different enough to have some staying power.
