Attack! Attack!

We’ve been on an undercover mission for the last year to add another dimension to our team of affiliates and represent the other scenes and types of music that both ourselves and King fans are into. Having kept our ear to the ground and fought our way through a ton of moshes we found ourselves particularly stoked on these guys – Attack! Attack! Hailing from Wales, they are the next big thing to break through on the rock/punk scene in the UK and both their live performances and debut album are testament to this. They have been nominated for Best British Newcomer at the this years Kerrang awards and came down to the King store this week to get kitted out for their forthcoming summer tour and Front magazine photoshoot. Expect some more collaborations on the King – Attack! Attack! Tip in the future and check out the band on their myspace page...
