Hailing from the Irish mecca of Boston, The KINGS OF NUTHIN' are an unlikely punk rock outfit equipped with the instruments of a full piece Rythm & Blues band from the fifties : an upright bass, a horn a section, a piano player, a guitarist, a lead singer, even a washboard player! Well-known across the East Coast for their out of control live sets, The KINGS OF NUTHIN' are a unique blend of psychobilly and punk: imagine BILL HALEY & THE COMETS or LITTLE RICHARD and the UPSETTERS hammering out their songs double speed and acquiring the drinking habits of CHARLES BUKOWSKI. "Fight Songs" is the Kings' second album (the first one was released by Reckloose Records) and it's their first release for DISASTER records (the Kings felt it would be in their best interest to work with a reputable label that was co-run by someone who had worse tattoos and less teeth than TORR, their lead singer...); it is a truly great release. Are you ready to party? I mean, are you REALLY READY TO PARTY?
