Coming at us from the pocket of the East Coast called New Jersey, It’s A King Thing have released their second full-length Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. As of yesterday, the album is available to stream online and like all of the band’s previous releases, can be downloaded for free.
“It’s A King Thing has matured into a indie power pop behemoth and Buffalo… is its crowning achievement. Led by singer / songwriter / smartass Brian Mietz and featuring former members of the criminally underrated Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start, It’s A King Thing should find fans of the first two Weezer albums, The Lemonheads, Nada Surf and Guided By Voices drooling uncontrollably.” (Beartrap PR)
“A band for boys and girls, late bloomers, nose pickers, pussies and procrastinators.”, It’s a King Thing are also three songs in to their plan to create videos for each of the 12 tracks on Buffalo… Check out the videos thus far here, and keep checking back for updates.
With alluring track titles like “Mush Mouth” and the Freaks and Geeks reference “Bill Haverchuck”, It’s a King Thing deliver just what they promise in poppy plays, infectious choruses, and honest lyrical quirk. You won’t find a better band at a better price, so head on over, download, and share Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
“If you are bummed on the last four Weezer records (however many they have put out since Pinkerton that is), just know there are bands like It’s A King Thing still out there still sticking it to the man.” - Sound As Language
“The Kingers have a song whose chorus is “I want to kiss your face off,” and if you can’t relate to that, we don’t wanna know you.”
- Philebrity
