I like Kingdon Come alot myself. They were one of the bands from my youth and still love them. I just need to get the last one they put out to complete the collection. But yes they are a very cool band.

I'd heard the name, but never (knowingly) heard a Kingdom Come song before a few months ago. (One of those pre-judgments you make that turns out to be totally stupid!) But, I really enjoy their stuff and would like to find more.

They or I should say mostly Lenny Wolf these days is great. When they first came out I still remember the rock station here in St Louis playing them and everyone thought Zepplin had a new song. The first album will in my opinion be always the best one they did. But they to me are still a very good band.

Kingdom Clone? I haven't heard that name in a while. I really loved their first single but when I called up the radio station to play it I asked for the new Robert Plant song. They laughed at me and hurt my feelings saying it wasn't Plant but KC.

 

:P

 

Actually like them a lot. They got fantastic reviews when they toured in the 80's and a lot of people loved the guitarist (Danny I think?). Said he had a great bluesy approach and nice live solo.

Are there any Kingdom Come fans here? Right now, I've got the Master Seven CD turned up so loud that the walls are skakin! Kingdom Come rocks!

Haha....yeah, my walls were 'skakin' to Assemblage23 last night!! :lol:

 

 

To stay on topic....I found that the Kingdom Come stuff was pretty good! So what if they sounded like Led Zeppelin....big fuckin' deal. That can almost be said about a ton of bands....so what....

 

The only cd I didn't like from them was a really lightweight one. Can't remember which one it was because I listened to it at a store and didn't buy it because it sucked so bad. But Master Seven was damn good!!

I have the first five albums that were released. The first three I used to own on cassette and liked each for different reasons. Their s/t album was great to throw in at parties (that tape was probably loaned out to 15 different people and still always found its way back to me). 17--what an awesome song! In Your Face seemed to veer away from the Zep sound a little, tried to sound more like what was popular at the time, but was still a great album.

 

I was very excited to get Hands of Time when it first came out because I thought it was really going to be something special. I guess Lenny wrote and played most of the instruments on the album. To me the album cover really gives a big hint as to the sound of the album. Heavy, pounding drums but the music just flows with Lenny's voice and gives an almost airy, relaxing feel despite it being a hard rock album. Very hard to describe, but it used to get a lot of play and is probably my second favorite behind the s/t.

 

Bad Image and Twilight Cruiser I recently got from Mothers Metal.com. I still have yet to listen to them (now I'm a little hesitant to hear Bad Image after JLPRocks comment :o ) but I hear Twilight Cruiser is very cool.

The funny thing I find is that it's actually difficult NOT to sound like someone nowadays. The whole...'they're a Led Zep rip off' is a cop out.....maybe you don't like them, but to use that as the excuse is poor.....

 

and that is just my opinion......LOL

I've noticed that if a band tries to sound like Zep thats a bad thing but if they try to sound like AC/DC thats a good thing... :P

Never had any use for this band. My favorite memory of them was seeing them get boo'ed off the stage at the Van Halen Monsters of Rock Tour in '88 by a crowd that was hungry to see Metallica, who were on after them... :lol:

      Thunder reissues part 2

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.

      Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.

      I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here
