King's X and Living Colour need to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
kings x is living colour on steriods! And they are both to good for that shameful place
this ^
I read an article years back that said. This is the undisputed favorite band of rock band and the one band no other band ever wanted to follow one stage.
Richie Blackmore said that. THEE Richie Blackmore of Deep Purple and Rainbow fame. A guitar giant that said that tells you something.
Still sounds as amazing as it did in 1989
Yes, I agree that King's X is the most underrated kick ass trio on the planet. They rocked then and they are still rocking in 2024.
I love all of their unique jazzy-like chords that hit you by surprise. They make you sit up in your seat. You get goosebumps . Love it!
Tabor's chops are second to none!
As an ex-bandmate once said, “You’re a Drummer with the soul of a Guitarist…”I took Guitar lessons first, but I didn’t have the patience with my thick hands/fingers. I put Steve Howe at #1 for his overall versatility, but Ty Tabor is, without a doubt, the most purely talented guitarist I’ve seen since 1987. His 12-string work on “Legal Kill” is great, particularly during the outro. I have seen King’s X 27 times (I’m from Houston), and they’re just otherworldly in so many ways. They're the tightest band I’ve ever seen, on record and live, and Tabor was also a drummer growing up, so it makes sense that they’re so locked. Plus the fact they’ve played together SO LONG. And, Jerry Gaskill NEVER overplays the drums, generally matching his kick drum to Doug’s Bass notes during single-note sections. Very minimalist, yet very interesting.
So, ANYWAY, Steve Howe/Ty Tabor/Alex Lifeson/Elliot Easton/Randy Jackson would probably be my Top 5, with a shout to Tom Morello and Reb Beach. The top 2 never change, but there have been so many great Guitarists since the 70s, that it’s hard to decide!Cheers!
This is how you define "power trio"
WInery dogs are better.
The guy is an amazing bassist/musician. Also the guitar chords here are wild. What a bizarre and interesting sound these guys have.
I don't hear anything bizarre
I believe what the brother’s trying to say is that these chords are definitely not your basic power chords or Barchords.
There is some serious creative business going on in that guitar player’s choice of chords.
@@dansmith2253 but that's a good thing you don't want to sound like so many other groups
@@abelmontalvo4052 king's X are Bizarre without even trying to be...most bizarre band on the planet for so many reasons and that's aside from the music! I could write a book about it🐸
"Grandma used to sing! Grandma used to sing! Every night, when she was prayin'!"
This song is over my head and I love it! What an uplifting and rockin' song! Makes me want to shout! :)
That main riff and the hendrix chord is unforgettable
Exactly. This album's release came at the right time for me as I was craving some Hendrix inspired Rock.
Absolutely KILLER guitar playing!
Ty is amazing
Absolutely. That sound just makes sense. It's not excessive, not out of reach and scope, just beautiful. I need another song to listen to.
Absolute amazing everything.. I have chills
Every human should have listen this song at least one time in his life. This is GOLD
Our version of gospel, music, lets all pray.
This was the best song that came out on MTV in the late 80's .
Trio bands that absolutely kill it: RUSH, CREAM, JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE, KING'S X.....yeah, they are THAT good, and belong with legendary bands mentioned! Many, many big time rock musicians are in awe of them-for good reason! New album coming in 2022.
Paul McCartney RAM album
It's killer and hard to believe how underrated it is even today
People slowly finding out about the early years
Even George (the "nice guy" to fans) treated him like shit. Crazy
because people love to be little dog servants to assholes
in this case, John Lennon
people LOOOVE to be under the command of an asshole
it's hard to believe sometimes, but you see it so often
My ex and I used to run into the lead singer all the time in the ‘90s all over Houston at Cactus Records once but primarily at Vinyl Edge. One of the coolest local rock stars and bands ever and that’s saying something for Houston’s 90s rock scene. My ex (May he RIP) and I had all their stuff and quite a bit of it was signed by him and other band members wo even asking before we ever left the store and afaik they were just customers as well. They were great live too!
I'll never forget the first time I saw this video on MTV back in '89. I stopped everything and was just glued to the TV. "Who are these guys? There's a 7ft tall black guy with a mohawk singing like a banshee. There's a short, unassuming little white guy totally tearing it up like a beast on the guitar and an incognito drummer who is so in the pocket it is stuff of legend. This is the greatest band I've ever heard!". The next day I went to the record store and bought "Gretchen Goes to Nebraska" and "Out of the Silent Planet". Just like that, one video was all it took. I became a diehard fan and haven't stopped all these decades later.
listen to a band called BAD BRAINS song called free
A complete " Ditto " on everything you just said about Kings X !
Heard on Headbangers Ball, bought it next day!
"In The New Age" was the first song I heard from them on a rock station. Same experience for me. Picked up Out Of The Silent Planet album the next day.
Gretchen was the first album I ever owned on cd.I bought it strictly because I liked the cover art.The minute I turned it on I knew this band was special.
Dudes are legit..... All can shred
I grew up on this music. It is almost biblical to me now. I saw them live when I was 9 for the first time; at 29 they are still my favorite band. Nothing can compare to them, and after the live stream I watched tonight from Nashville I love them now more than ever. God bless King's X and the hard times they have carried me through. I would not have made it without their music.
I feel the same & wish I could have discovered them at the age of nine but I turned 9 in 1979.
❤
It's a crime against good taste that this band isn't one of the biggest bands on the planet right now. I can only assume this is because they're just TOO good for most of the consumer sheep crowd to comprehend.
Also, dUg has the best goddamn scream in rock 'n' roll, dude actually SINGS when he's screaming!
Rolling Stone called Gretchen Goes to Nebraska one of the greatest albums ever made.
i actually Always liked their debut,'Out of the Silent Planet' even better.
Bijun Tan
Me too but you can’t go wrong with these guys! Love them to death!!
Even a blind squirrel (Rolling Stone) finds an acorn now and again. ;-)
So much for rolling stone ! Fish rap at best !
RollingStone also knocked every album Led Zeppelin ever made. So they aren't much of an authority. Even though I will forever be a fan of this band and have every album.
My pick for most criminally underrated band of all time.
Not that great. LOL
The Veer Union is also under that sad lable as underrated
Easy upvote on that!
It absolutely is fucking criminal.
Not so much underrated as unknown to too many people. Those who know their music rate them very highly !
Love the guitar tone,the bass playing,the drums...the fucking everything. Incredible talented band.
I've been a King's X fan for 20 years, and a singer all my life, but I just learned to day that "Over My Head I Hear Music In The Air" is an old gospel spiritual song. I've seen the band 5 times over the years, love it when they play this. Most memorable was in a crumbling old theater in Denver, dUg got the whole medium sized crowd singing while he went off above it all, brought tears. Love these guys so much.
We didn't invent heavy music. It was invested by three guys from Katy, Texas. --Jeff Ament, Pearl Jam. Also Ament: this is the band whose CD your favorite band has on their shelf.
Kings X, our little secret.
Great to come back to this video once every few months to see how many new people checked in =D

🤞🤞🤞
Saw King's X when they supported ACDC in Glasgow. Bought the album the following day. Superb live act.
This was one of my mates favourite bands before he died and its the anniversary today so I had to give Kings X a listen. I hope you're rocking in paradise you ol bastard!
These guy's are "BADASS".... × 20,.... their sound is TOUGH...and very TIGHT......
damned shame how underrated these guys are.
You are so right.
..LOL ! 😀 ..All of the Headbangerz up in the balcony at 2:46 !! 🤘😂👍
My favorite by KX❤️🎶
Music the gift of God !🙏
sat in Z-ROCK studio and had pizza n beer with members back in day.... back stage passes for show that night in TEXAS... dont remember much after leaving studio.......
The solo melted my face then went over my head.
One suggestion if no one has before. King's X. Doug Pinnick is just excellent. Over My Head is a good song.
One of the most underrated bands of all time. These guys, Living Colour, The Wildhearts, plenty of amazing acts who have been passed over badly. Sad
Totally agree brother.
So underrated that I have never even heard of them.
i’m not hearing anything that’s horribly underrated. if anything, your comment is overrating them
After Faith, Hope, Love their self titled album never got proper attention for the masterpiece it is. As an armchair quarterback, I would say "Black Flag" was a poor choice for a single when you had "Not Just For The Dead" on the same record. I realize some people will say " That's Ty singing lead again. He's not their best lead vocalist. And yes, he's white, too" And those things are technically true. Both Ty and Doug trade the lead singer role in this song. The most important lyrics in the song "Will it be? Can you see? Are you free?" And the hook, are all sang by Doug Alone. I see him as the lead, even though Ty sings the verses. Vocals and harmonies from all 3 are what makes this band so great. I didn't even mention that incredible guitar sound from that amp. Which is merely icing on a delicious cake.
Especially Ty Tabor the lead guitarist. That wailing solo is one of my favorites from the 90's
Houston's Finest bar band I've ever heard. Live these guys Explode with Sound. Very under rated band.
Saw these guys live in 1992 in a club that held less than 300 people. Incredible seems to fall short for a discription. A magic 3 piece. One of the most incredible bands very few people have ever heard of.
Same. Providence , RI about 75 people
I seen the in a club in 92 also in Saint Louis Missouri club 367….best concert ever
I just discovered Black The Sky yesterday morning. That was my introduction to them. I feel like an idiot because a friend told me over a decade ago when we were in school that it was her favorite band. Never checked it out until it came on spotify at random. Criminally underrated is very accurate!
“Black The Sky” is an AWESOME song, from an AWESOME, and VERY ANGRY album. It’s one of those songs where the pain just drones on and on. Jerry doesn’t overplay the drums (ever), giving space for all that beautiful Guitar HEAVINESS and Vocal pain to bleed through. I venture to guess it’s a song about Doug’s struggle with living in the closet as a Christian (at that time, may he return one day) and how hard it was to do such a thing. There are MANY references to this struggle on the “Dogman” album, and it’s heartbreaking because it’s just a fact that many people are BORN with the biology of homosexuality (my guess is around half). So, what does one do, especially f they’re a Christian?
The song is awesome, as is most of the album.It’s my favorite King’s X album because of the change in Producer from Sam “Embezzler” Tayor to Brendan O’Brien. He gave them that deep, hard sound, the embodiment of “Heavy Music”, which they invented anyway, that they had needed, especially since “Faith, Hope, Love”. “Don’t Care” is another emotionally menacing song, and the drumming on the outro is fantastic, as are Ty and Doug’s timing while Jerry solos a bit…right on time. “Pillow” is another soul-searching song with gut-wrenching Guitar tone. WOW.
Cheers!
They been doing this 40 plus years and are definitely underrated!!!!!
Ty Tabor is a guitar god! I wish I had his mad skills!
"DANCE to the Music !!" 4:25 🕺🤘💃
I've followed music for years and even worked for a promoter, but this is the first time
I've ever heard this song. How did I miss it? I was just thinking how bad music sucks right now, and was hoping for something innovative, then this song came on the radio. I actually smiled thinking I found a new band to follow, only to find out they're an old band to follow. I'm still smiling though. I already knew Living Colour, but now excited to go look up all the King's X music. Feels like when I discovered Linkin Park or Godsmack. Feels good.😃
Some high school friends and I drove from Lake Charles to Houston to be in this video. What a great day, and these guys were top notch. Very down to earth. I still remember when this video debuted on MTV and we all huddled around to see if we could find ourselves in it. Our three seconds of fame would come at 3:49-3:52. Good times.
The band at the time of the album's release were very big C.S. Lewis fans. As confusing as it sounds, they intended "Out of the Silent Planet" (the first track from the second album) to be on the first album. The song didn't make it but the name stuck. The song then became the opening track on Gretchen. In my opinion it was the perfect transitional song from the first album to the second and was perfect for the time. OOTSP remains my favorite song to date, 23 years later...
I went to school with Jerry the drummer and lived next to Dugs mom in Houston Texas. After winning the Battle of the bands in Houston and going to LA with a record contract...they were expected to be bigger than the Beatles...didn't happen. But the were voted best bar/club band 12 yrs in a row in LA. They just released a new album 6 months or so ago...check it out...best in years!
Kings x the boys really kick some serious ass!!!
Die hard fan since Gretchen...still stirs my soul...God bless King's X.
Ahhh....remember Gretchen? I'll never be the same...
Out of the silent planet for me
Amazing band. Insanely underrated. Sounds way bigger than just a three piece!
I tweet you guys regularly King's X. It's in my best interests for my record collection to be more valuable, so I tweet songs on youtube constantly. I do give a damn about the little guys, and often tweet stuff I don't own also, and I suppose that is charity theoretically. I do free promos for stuff I own. People should do that for their things if they have some time to kill.
The bass tone Dug has is the epitome of what distorted bass should be. Not fuzzy or so intense that notes are unintelligible. But rather, enhance the top end and midrange with a good amount of bite while leaving bottom end clean and big to help reinforce the guitars.
Grew up in Houston listening to these guys in a 1972 Chevelle. The car was fast and loud and so was the music. What a great time!
Happy Birthday Doug Pinnick of King's X! Can't believe he is 60. Rock on brother!
Another band that should have been huge. A great underrated act
FRIKKIN KINGS X. in this day and age you dont need to have any tallent to become a musician. just know the same three power chords and your golden.
This video was played quite a lot by MTV in the fall of '89...I remember it!
マジで洗練された曲
100年後も聴かれてるだろうな
The best song King's X ever did. Had ALL of their songs been in this brighter tone rather than the Alt/grunge stuff most of their stuff is in, they would be HUGE
Yeah man! This one got me from the jump!!! Vocalist/Guitarist a bit o' Jimi . . . . So much soul and swagger . . . I dig it! Funky guitar is killer. BAND IS NEW TO ME. I AM A FAN! ❤❤❤❤❤
WOW!!! 1 MILLION VIEWS!!! Great job King's X!!! Awesome hard working band still going strong!!!
Here is absolutely killer everyone and everything...
They are criminally underappreciated because they've always been soooooo ahead of their time
He's like Halford in so many ways.
WTF really? Suppose you're referring to the fact that dUg is gay? So what. JP & kings X are bad ass.
If they went more doom and gloom, I think they would have gotten more mainstream popularity.
MAN FOR A THREE MAN BAND WITH HARMONY ON TOP OF HARMONY THIS IS GOOD MUSIC!!
So stoked to see the views on this vid slowly build til they finally crack 1 mil, King's X deserves the success and so much more
Actually it really is cool. I hope they still receive royalties. TH-cam wasn't even a wisp of a dream in our minds back then. Back when we still had corded phones and the internet was just barely online. It's weird how fast things changed from there.
Great to come back to this video once every few months to see how many new people checked in =D
KX
🤞🤞🤞
@@GregJoshuaW dUg mentioned in an interview recently that Atlantic released the full rights back to them, so yes King's X are getting royalties again :)
Thanks to my muso mates here In Australia for putting me on to Kings X a few years ago. They are different to the norm and have their own show going on.
Great they have a huge following still.
I just thought I would comment to add to the numbers 🤘⚡⚡⚡⚡🤘🤘
The most underrated band in the history of earth. The songwriting, composition, and lyrics are inspired, timeless.
The first time I saw this on Headbangers Ball and I was glued to the TV. Been a fan ever since.
This stuff has aged well. I think I like them more now than I did when I was a kid.
Ty's guitar solos groove!
Greatest band of my life for 40 years now. If I can walk, I'm going to see them in September. I've had some heart, health and back problems the last five years of my life which has really wrecked my quality of life. I'd love to take my wife to see them live while they're still touring. She lovea them too. A couple of them went to my almamater, Evangel College in Springfield MO. I have a few fond memories of hanging out with Dug back when they were called The Edge, then Sneak Preview. But, he wouldn't remember me. I don't look at all like I used to. To the contrary, these guys have aged so well, and they're music is timeless!!!
What’s going on with you healthwise? As strange as this may sound, if you share with me what’s going on, I can most likely help point you in the right direction.
I have been getting people off of medications since 2007, and this is after leaving the medical field for years, and pointing people in the right direction to holistically heal themselves.
Hope You Were Able To Take Your Wife TO See KINGS X! ❤️🖤❤️
ANOTHER TIMELESS CLASSIC! 80"S MUSIC RULES!! the dj
Saw these guys at Rockefellers in Houston a million years ago, Gretchen Goes To Nebraska, killer album...great live...bad ass rock band
Underrated is SO right
I was there, too. RIP Rockefeller's...a great room.
Im not a religious band kinda guy...but like kingz x & stryper...i do respect their music...sk8r till i die ...punk till thee end
THESE GUY'S R FANTASTIC, REMIND ME OF THE GOAT PRINCE.
We love their music .... I think that's all that really matters . PK
Should have been one of the biggest bands in the world.
Hells yeah!!
Totally. They are amazing. I have always thought that the band name didn't help them. Sure, it should be the music and not the name of the band that does the talking for a band. But it isn't the greatest name. But what I think really hurt them was that they were labelled as a christian band in the beginning of their career. That definitely hurt them...big time.
Greg Winter agree 100000000%
THEY R
I don't think they would've wanted to be one of the biggest bands in the world
Zapp 🪄 that boy with the Powers that be, GRANDMA !! 🔮 3:44 🤘😎👍 3:30 ⚡️🎸 !!
I still to this day marvel at the way the bass wanders underneath the main part of the riff. He only plays in unison with it a couple of times after the handclap section. Most bands, including ones I've been in myself, would've had the bass and guitar in unison throughout. So many twists to their songs. Not one note that hasn't been pored over.
Saw them in Kansas City last night. The only problem is that a 30 minute set is just not long enough! They did rock this one, but no "Black Flag."
Best trio in the world
this is even better than the studioversion almost unreal my feet are still whippin.this music can make me high cause its perfect and has sooo much passion feelin.i would not even dare ,to compare it to todays shit music.sorry,but was has to be said...at least,its music for musicians,kings x clss of perfection is hardly to dig for normal,non musicians,.maybe thats the reason,why they didnt made it to the top.too good for everybody.thats their tragedy.but thei can be very proud of,their legacy.this version is givin me chills...
this band never got what they deserved . its all about the music over our head . good message . God Bless and Rock On
back then it was all about the record company not being behind the band and promoting them . there was a band called riot with same problem great songs but never broke out . twisted sister faced the same problem and went to England with money they borrowed from a club owner in NYC
Riot's Fire Down Below is one of the greatest hard rock albums ever.
Check out riot live at my fathers place .
I used to have a copy of them live on cassette, though not sure what concert it was. But thanks for posting that. And the album was Fire Down Under not Below in case others read this who aren't familiar with the band. 35 years later and never remember for sure if it's Under or Below. Go figure.
King's X: The WNBA of the heavy metal world. Nothing fancy, but good fundamentals.
Greatest bass tone ever
Lemmy. Pete steele.
Speaking of tones, Ty Tabor is no slouch, when it comes to tone.
Doug Pinnick also plays a wicked 12 string bass.
Doug was basically 40 when the band got signed.... still kicking ass at 70!!
Gives me hope! Haha
72 today :)
What? He looks like he's in his early 20's
@@dougpinnick9279 thank you so much for your great and inspiring Kings X-music! Me and my friends love to listen since 1987 and still love it!
Take good care of yourself and your families!
Greetz from Bielefeld, Germany
Massive inspiration to continued persistence to one’s dreams.
i bought a copy of kings x grerchen gos.. just because of the album cover..i was blown away by this band, i wasnt into christian music at the time. i think kings x was my first christian album.
ONE OF THEE MOST UNDERRATED BANDS OF ALLTIME. People often say it, because it's true. These guys were absolutely dripping with talent.
I never understood how Living Colour got so huge be these guys didn't. Not to compare the two but...both progressive metal with soulful black singers. To me Kings X were always superior.
Living Colour were good, but I agree not as talented as KingsX... although Living Colour had the advantage of knowing Mick Jagger. Jagger helped discover the band, and also performed on, and produced some of the tracks on their debut album. That and Jagger offered the band the chance to open up for the Stones, on the 1989 'Steel Wheels' Tour.
They still are dude.
FEI - The base player Doug Pinic is named in the credits to Pearl Jam 10, his multi sting base and playing style was a big influence.
ty tabor is one of the most underrated guitarrists ever
日本では滅茶苦茶無名なバンド！
聴いてみたらすげえいいじゃん！
One of favorite all time songs. Three awesome dudes producing a killer sound. So much volume, range, harmonies, energy, and that guitar. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Ty Tabor on 🎸
God, they're good 🔥
This is one of the greatest songs of all time!!
Everytime i listen to this,i feel so good,so invincible,it affects me most when i'm down,just like today.
Funny how this song always came when i needed some good vibes...
Commented just to remind you of this. ;)
Same. I play it before I start a project and need to get pumped up.
Terribly Underrated...
😠🤘
Just terrible.
By far one of the most talented bands to grace the music scene in decades. Every element of their sound is unmistakeable and unmatched in the realm of hard rock today.
The second solo is just perfect.
I love the guitar work and tone, the beat of the song - man, I love everything about this song! Just heard it for my first time yesterday on the radio, and I had to hurry to TH-cam to find it. Man, this is a HOT song! The guitar work is genius throughout, and the vocal work is amazing!
Man I've been signing the shit out of this jam and I couldn't for the life of me remember who played it..... glad I finally found it
helped me through the hard times and then some. this band is among the greatest musical minds in the world in my opinion. soul, on soul, on soul, on soul. They give me chills every time.
I smoked a J with Doug at a Pushmonkey show years ago... Dude has the most Soulful voice in rock... And a all around awesome person.
