Top 10 Albums of the Year- #9


King Khan & The Shrines

I bought this album used from a repo records store in Philadelphia. I wasn't expecting much when I picked it up, but I had heard some good reviews. After spinning it a couple of times through I really got into King Khan and his brand of psychedelic bombastic funk. Songs like "Welfare Breed", "Que Lindo Sueno", and "Torture" caught my attention the most readily, but all in all the whole LP is great. It's energetic and varied enough throughout to stay fresh, and it kinda reminds me of James Brown, which is definitely a plus.
