NEW LP
TKO Records
The current renaissance of Oi! and Oi!-influenced has had worldwide reverberations. This has been felt throughout humanity, and beyond. Echos of The Sound Of The Street have even reached the hidden jungle metropolis of Gorilla City. And thus, TKO Records is now proud to introduce KONG KONG.
Landing on an adequate and concisely description of KONG KONG is a challenge
If you can imagine a huge hominid fronting a band, kicking out catchy tunes that fall into a nebulous gray area between the toughest Oi! and the sweetest Power Pop, then youre getting close. Or as one infamous Punk/HC podcast recently said This IS Grape Apes(tm) band. Suffice to say, KONG KONG may have no real analog nor precedent in the human Punk scene, but youre gonna like what you hear.
Since 2020, KONG KONG has released one phenomenal 7 EP after another, but apart from a limited cassette release, their music have seen only minimal distribution outside of the jungles of Europe.
Naysayers may claim this as further evidence to support the theory that the band is nothing more than four cheeky Swedes in masks, and not hyper-talented simians. But the simple truth is that even Gorilla warlords need international music distribution.
Luckily, TKO has been entrusted with the stateside distribution of Gorilla Citys finest musical import, and were proud to announce the release of Gorilla Anthems Collection: 2020-2025. Gorilla Anthems collects some of the best selections from KONG KONGs EPs, as well as two new, LP-exclusive tracks, one each for the North American and European versions.
What more can be said? If a band of gorillas delivering master-crafted Punk tunes doesnt hook you, you cant be hooked. And if youre concerned with the ethical implications of releasing a record for an invading horde of evil primates, take it up with the SPCA.
