Never heard of King Konqueror? Better look at the bio and press photo. Before you start your visit, please say hi to our funloving friends and envious enemies in The King Konqueror Guestbook. Friday, April 3, 2009 - HALIFAX - The Seahorse, with mystery guests NOT SO NEW CD STILL OUT- It's called FIST MAGNET, and it's the best album in the history of music. You can buy FIST MAGNET at skynetmusic.com or SAM THE RECORD MAN on Barrington St. in Halifax, or CDPLUS on Barrington St. Halifax, or TAZ Records, Gottingen St. Halifax, or skip the middleman and buy directly from us at a show. Here's what hfxnews.ca thinks of the freshly baked King Konqueror CD. But what did Stephen Cooke of the Halifax Herald say about FIST MAGNET? You can find out only by clicking right... right...here! No, no, not here. You missed it. Go back a bit. We love The Coast, and The Coast love us. Or do they? Find out. And here's a nice mention of FIST MAGNET from CHART ATTACK. FIST MAGNET HITS THE CHARTS!!! King Konqueror's new CD hit the charts running by debuting at #14 a staggering 2 months before its actual release. Wow. That's better than Elvis and the Beatles combined. The album skyrocketed to #4 and shows no sign of slowing down. It now risks crashing all the way into negative numbers (that would be a first in the history of recorded music). You can follow the break-neck action by checking this chart compulsively every few minutes. LYRICS! Yes, we finally know what Rolly is saying in all those songs on FIST MAGNET. Is he maybe dropping a veiled reference to YOU? Check and see on our lyrics page. The only people who love us more than we do are the media. Just look at these gushing reviews while we check ourselves out in the mirror: "King Konqueror is the best band in the universe." - Halifax Daily News "Number one!" "Rocked us so hard we peed our pants!" - Chart Attack NXNE Report "Could rock any crowd!" "Truly lives up to it's name!" -Brunswickan Online "Apart from all other acts!" "My favourite!" -Agouti Music Online "Heartfelt!" "Socially Positive!" "Perfect!" -Rude Roots Dot Com "Sharp!" "Obnoxious!" "The best music!" "Yowza!" -Chart Attack "Terrifyingly snazzy!" - Halifax Scooter Council "Wicked!" "We'll be hearing a lot more from this band" -Frantic "Live up to their name!" "Get on the floor and shake your ass!" -ZenVendor.com "Our favourite band!" -The Kingpins "Cocky!" "Boastful!" "Rule the stage!" "Awesome!" "I hate King Konqueror"-Around Halifax Judge Rolly Here's a review of our NXNE show at the Tequila Lounge in Toronto. Out of 400 bands, Canadian Music Network liked our asses the best(brag brag brag): "Nattily attired King Konqueror made the trip from Halifax and put on a show that was my most pleasant musical surprise of the NXNE festival. The high-octane band mixes... garage rock, but also played a cool roots reggae number. The guitarist frequently jumped into the crowd to play and a guy in a gorilla suit came on to the dancefloor to shake a leg to "Chicken Wing", a song about cunnilingus and masturbation - two things I'm very good at. Things ended with a killer version of The Who's "I Can't Explain", which climaxed with the singer and the gorilla wrestling each other onto the floor of the stage."
