The Outsiders are Back

"A groove-heavy, horn-powered mix of funk and soul...a powerhouse group, with three stunning vocalists and an explosive horn section."
- NPR

"It sounds great... it's an exciting moment for soul music...Kings Go Forth are taking nothing for granted, which lends their music an urgency that transcends mere revivalism."
- Pitchfork

"With fiery singer Black Wolf leading the attack, the fine debut from Milwaukee's ten-man Kings Go Forth echoes the high-flying vibe of Superfly-era Curtis Mayfield and other '70s greats, yet feels utterly fresh. On spine-tinglers like "High on Your Love" and "You're the One," the sweet, pleading vocals encompass both ecstasy and desperation, while the blazing beats boast the urgency of ska or punk. For extra satisfaction, savor the sizzling production - mono on most tracks - and the retro (but new) cover graphics by famed outsider artist Mingering Mike."

- Vanity Fair

"It's rousing, noisy rambunctious funk, and its passion is matched by the skill and subtlety of the arrangement - KFG understand perfectly that the best funk sounds so spontaneous because it's been meticulously put together."
- BBC Music
