KINGS DESTROY

REIGN OF ZAIUS • TACKLESNATCH • GROWLER

Kings Destroy, NYC’s hybrid of stoner rock, doom and hardcore, unites musicians from many of the genres’ most prolific bands. Hailing from the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, KD features guitarists Carl Porcaro and Chris Skowronski from NYHC legends Killing Time, vocalist Steve Murphy from Uppercut, drummer Rob Sefcik formerly of Man's Ruin, The Begotten, Uppercut and Electric Frankenstein, and bassist Aaron Bumpus. With influences like The Melvins, Yob and Cro Mags, KD describes their sound as "brutal Sabbath heaviness with hardcore outbursts and disturbed vocals verging on the demented."

Ape-Rockin'

REIGN OF ZAIUS

BEDROOM REHAB CORPORATION

CATERWAUL OF SOUND 

The very existence of the Great Ape Empire has been shrouded in shadows throughout recorded history. For centuries all but a select few humans have known the Ape as a creature of lesser intelligence, not only deserving of subjugation, but content to receive it.

As time moves forward, however, mankind finally finds itself having developed the technology to allow for the world-wide dissemination of real information on Ape societies — information culled from research and science, not zoos and circus sideshows. It is because of these breakthroughs that Apes have voiced a united "yes" and expressed their desire for the truth to be told.

We, those chosen to usher in the glorious Reign of Zaius have been charged by the High Ape Council to advance human/ape relations through the common language: Music. We have studied human-rock music patterns and perfected its techniques in hopes that we might bridge the social gap between the two premier species of Earth.

Our biggest fear is that the Homo Sapien population has not evolved enough to comprehend the gravity of our situation and will continue to deny this ultimate truth. Although we hold tight to the hope that ours will be a peaceful a mission, make no mistake that those who reject our diplomacy — those who resist — will be rocked forcibly, as our ultimate objective of ape knowledge dissemination cannot afford to be delayed.

The time for change has dawned on us all. The Reign of Zaius will not — can not — be stopped. The fate of all species; Ape, Human, and otherwise - depends on it...

Amor Fati

KINGS DESTROY • THE BROUGHT LOW

THE MIGHTY HIGH • REIGN OF ZAIUS

Hailing from the Brooklyn, Kings Destroy features guitarists Carl Porcaro and Chris Skowronski from NYHC legends Killing Time, vocalist Steve Murphy from Uppercut, drummer Rob Sefcik formerly of Man's Ruin, The Begotten, Uppercut and Electric Frankenstein, and bassist Aaron Bumpus. The common bond? "An addiction to excessive volume, power and driving, distorted riffs." With influences ranging from Zeppelin and the Who to The Melvins, Yob and The Cro-Mags, KD describes their sound as "brutal Sabbath heaviness with hardcore outbursts and disturbed vocals verging on the demented."

Hard-rocking, outer-borough power-trio The Brought Low recently released their third full-length album, the aptly titled Third Record, to near-universal acclaim. The Obelisk called them "the best rock and roll band in New York" and The Big Takeover said "Previous albums have been excellent, but Third Record takes the group to a whole 'nother level, indisputably placing The Brought Low in the ranks of the Great American Bands."

The Mighty High are Brooklyn's #1 regressive-rock act... No ballads. No keyboards. NO ACOUSTIC GUITARS!

Reign Of Zaius play straight-up Ape-Rock.
