“King Youngblood have a legitimate claim as torchbearers of the next generation of alternative rock. The hooks are husky enough to recall fabled rockers of the ‘90s and ‘00s, but there’s a controlled mayhem in what they’re doing that allows the group’s more globally-focused elements to shine through.”
