News: Kings Ransom releasing two full-length albums
Picture yourself, it is 1989 and you’re sitting in your car cranking up a new cassette with your friends. You read about the band in the last issue of Heavens Metal and they just opened up for Guardian and Bride too.
Now Kings Ransom is releasing 2 full length recordings of songs originally written and/or recorded between 1988 and 1991. All old school leather and hairspray rock n roll to bring you back to that new cassette feeling.
This has been called “the best hard rock recording I’ve never heard”. KR is the perfect listen for someone who loved Stryper, Guardian, Shout and Bride. Or if you were so inclined: Skid Row, Motley Crue, BonJovi and Extreme.
