KC Rules OK!!

ALBUM KC RULES OK
ARTIST KING CREOSOTE
LABEL NAMES/679

Based in the kingdom of Fife, Kenny Anderson has been recording and releasing literally gazillions of albums on his own Fence record label for about the last ten years. King Creosote's third commercially released album, KC Rules OK follows the much acclaimed 'Rocket DIY' which got him voted one of the top 50 Scottish bands of all time. Recorded with 'The Earlies', KC Rules OK is a beautiful collection of touching, funny, sad, poignant and heartbreaking songs. Like Belle & Sebastien, KC finds wonder in the minutiae of adult relationships; trips to Safeway and unromantic garlic breath. Maguerita Red is as bohemian and heartfelt a song that you'll hear in a long time. His Scottish accent is clearly identifiable as he sings and lends a certain charm to the small town folk feel. In all it's an album worth investigating.
