King Tuff's 2009 album Was Dead didn't do much in terms of people actually listening to it outside a few switched on blog bros and those in the know in the King's Vermont music circle. Don't let that put you off, infact its a bonus, if you're reading this you're probably the kind of cat that likes to keep little trinkets of musical treasure locked away in a closet close to your chest..lest others claim them as their own. Well King Tuff is tailor made for your little hipper than thou complexes. Mixing the hell's jangle of Raw Power era Stooges with the drug psych of 13th Floor Elevators, The King's reverence for melodies past is clear and present throughout. Check out stand-out track Sun Medallion below...
This reminds me of Nashville porches and San Francisco's golden bridges all at once...beautiful
