Ear Candy is King's X most straight-forward album, lacking the art-rock tendencies of their earlier albums. What is left is a psychedelicized heavy metal, with swirling harmonies and guitar riffs. Although the album lacks a standout track on the level of "Over My Head," the songwriting maintains a consistently high level throughout the album.
I don't listen to a lot of heavy metal, but I've always loved King's X. Their typical tunes have very cool chord progressions and they craft great tunes. Cool CD cover too.This one I'm sharing today is NOT typical of their work, but it's a great track that you don't have to be a head banger or into heavy metal to enjoy. Give it a try- you know you want to.
