King In Yellow emerges as a sonic storm in the music industry with their debut single, โSpirit Shift.โ
Spirit Shift grabs you by the collar and throws you headfirst into a whirlwind of decisive, fierce anthemic vocals against gritty, grinding guitars. King In Yellow shows they are not here to whisper. They roar with anthemic monologuing vocals delivered with a sense of urgency and intensity that borders on the primal. With the founder Kyle Mcdonough and Nick Vining, behind the writing, the rallying cry empowers. So, it seems their decision to go big and bold with the vocals pays off, as they have come prepared for the music industry with a distinctive and memorable sonic signature.
The instrumental arrangement complements the vocal prowess with a sonic landscape that oscillates between post-punk (think Sonic Youth), experimental rock, and alternative. The guitars take center stage, delivering melodic and shimmering riffs that echo with a sense of grandeur. The pulsating drumline drives the song forward, providing a solid foundation for the cacophony.
Together, the 4-piece King In Yellow pays homage to the roots of alternative music, with a nod to iconic albums like The Stoogesโ โFunhouse.โ Meanwhile, the echoes of the โ80s Manchester scene, like Joy Division, seep through.
With unbridled passion that fuels their debut single, โSpirit Shift,โ the rising band King In Yellow introduces their unfiltered aural atmosphere.
