INTERVIEW EXCERPT:
"Jon Spencer produced your album "6x3". How did you meet Jon Spencer?
Guitar Wolf introduced Jon Spencer to us. He is absolutely my master. Thanks for
IN THE RED (US label) who hooked up us to work together. One of our dreams has come
true, so now the next one will be to work with the Rolling Stones.
Do you think Jon Spencer’s production created a different sound on the record?
To be honest, Jon Spencer was the original reason we have started King Brothers.
It was the best time we ever had and I think we have finished one career respecting
and following Jon Spencer after that. So that experience brought the latest style
of King Brothers. Now we have moved on to the new level without Jon in a good way.
Is it true that Jon Spencer and Christina Martinez’s son plays or sings on "Doo
Doo Scratch"?
Jon's son Charlie and Ron from my favorite NY band, Speed Ball Babys, joined in
that song. We have recorded it in Matt from Speedball Babys studio. When I met Jon
and Matt in NY again, I shouted NY ROCK N ROOL!! THIS IS THE CENTRAL OF THE WORLD!!"

SUMMARY:
"Jon Spencer produced, adding new instrumentation and dynamics to THE KING BROTHERS'
sound. The pace is slowed, but no less intense, and the songwriting is stretching
in strange new ways. The guitars, still ragged, are inching into a tortured psychedelia.
'Doo Doo Scratch' features Jon and his kid. 'Paint It Black!!' isn't THE ROLLING
STONES' tune. '1979' grows into a chorus of maniacs. 'There Is Nothing' starts as
a slow percussive shuffle, but erupts in an explosion of guitar. 'Sonics' rocks,
and 'Birth Of The Cool' (7:58) delights with haunting bg vocals and a trek into
a sonic wilderness." - rockofjapan.com
