King's X Song Lyrics

King's X is an American rock trio from Springfield, Missouri formed in 1985 who pioneered a unique blend of progressive rock, funk, and heavy metal anchored by intricate three-part harmonies and spiritual themes. Their breakthrough album "Gretchen Goes to Nebraska" (1989) and hits like "Over My Head" showcased their ability to seamlessly merge complex musicianship with accessible melodies, while songs like "Black Flag" and "Go Tell Somebody" demonstrated their heavier edge. Despite critical acclaim and influence on bands like Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, King's X remained largely underground, becoming one of rock's most respected "musician's bands." Their catalog spanning over three decades, including recent works like "XV," continues to showcase bassist/vocalist Doug Pinnick's soulful voice, Ty Tabor's innovative guitar work, and Jerry Gaskill's dynamic drumming.
