XAVIER AND THE MESSENGERS: THE KING HAS COME
If there could be a new 80s release, this is as close as it gets! Punk pop lives in this reissue of “The King Has Come” by Charles Xavier and the Messengers. With influences from The Police, The Pretenders, The B-52s, New Order and Devo, this four cut EP gets you rock’n with fun tunes that get you out on the dance floor. Check out the light satire and tongue-in-cheek humor on the album cover (pasted below): a smiling Ronald Reagan wearing a king’s crown surrounded by missiles. Don’t miss this good-hearted set with heavy guitars and scream’n saxophones. Downbeat Magazine gave it an “Editor’s Choice” review in 1982. Check it out now and you’ll be glad you did.
“Eyewitness News” & "I Like he In The Out" are the next FREE digital-only releases planned in support of Charles Xavier’s upcoming series of a live club dates being scheduled in the US for 2012. In the song, "Eyewitness News" Xavier creates a surreal viewpoint of broadcast news casters who create slick packaging for social and political change. It’s an audio art work like no other.
