King Kool is a kicking breed of art garage rock. Two personnel make up the outfit but produce a big fat sonic akin to all their heroes, Pixies, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Motorhead, Stooges, Sabbath to boot.

Crowland, Fenland UK June 2005 caught old muso mates kicking jams for old times sake. Matt Middleton and Dan Donovan have been part and parcel of many musical enterprises. Cult greb goth outfit Tribe of Dan (1 & 2), the dark brooding Trashbone Thang and minimal album The Leaven Dell all had significant input and marked collaboration from these two guys.

The afternoon in Crowland was fruitful and they were both drawn to the idea of doing something together again musically. The brief here was to create a full blown electric outfit without a bass player, keyboard player etc involved. Loud electric guitar, full on drum kit and two vocals is where King Kool are coming from. Both guys have an interest in unique performance and song writing. Matt and Dan have a mutual appreciation and understanding of each other and their influences.

By September 05 12 tracks had been recorded and in true independent spirit King Kool release their first album.

Airplays of this album in the States gave King Kool a number one slot in a U.S. college radio chart over Christmas 06.

June 06, Matt left the band and was replaced with Joe Mason. Joe now picks up the vision with Dan and the new KK launches chapter two.

December 07, The second King Kool album is released, Yeah Yeah Liberte. 13 new tunes full on with some darker experimental moments.
