JOE’s Song Of The Day #641: King Kong Company ‘Killswitch’

Eric Lalor

King Kong Company are back with another banger.

It’s quite apt on the eve of the biggest music festival of the year that we’re featuring a band with a reputation built on mind-blowing festival performances.

King Kong Company have been one of the go-to bands at festivals in this country for years.

Their live performances are the stuff of legend and this Friday night at Electric Picnic, they take to the Electric Arena stage at 8pm. The tent will be packed so get there early.

They have just released the video for their brand new single and you could call it Black Mirror – The Musical.

The King Kong crew teamed up with Neil McLellan (The Prodigy) on audio production duties and Dicemen Productions for the visuals. The track and video explore how social media uses us while we’re using it; it’s a dark but topical subject matter, but this is a band who are no strangers to wrestling things that lurk in the shadows.

Expect the Electric Arena to go off when this banger is belted out to what is guaranteed to be another capacity crowd, all chomping at the bit to get the session started in some style, as KKC lash out the bass and beats.

Keep up to date with the band via their Facebook page right here.
