The 5/28/04 concert gives a nice overview of the Kings catalog. The site’s also got some cool KoC covers…
(Tom Petty)
(Mag Fields)
(Portishead)
Stream the duo’s latest album here. If you’re looking for something more upbeat, pick up Erlend’s awesome DJ Mix.

Interestingly…the guitar line is the original melody from the sample source, Daydream by Wallace Collection – more prominently sampled by the Beta Band on Squares.
I’ll stop now.
Ooh… which guitar line?
such a great record, just wish they’d tour to the US
just another crazed fan comment for you: every time i think you couldn’t be any cooler, you prove me wrong. koc deserves way more appreciation. thanks for the covers!
It’s sad that they still haven’t announced a US tour for this album. My sister’s in Italy and she totally gets to go see them. I hate her. Their SF show a few years back was one of the best concerts I’ve been to.
Thanks, Scott. KoC deserves all the props they get, Erlend Øye is simply one of music’s greatest treasures.
You simply MUST seek out their cover of “Once Around The Block”! It’s awesome… much better than the Magnetic Fields cover (although perhaps I just love the original too much). By the way, as far as something “more upbeat” goes, I’d sooner recommend the outstanding remixes album “Versus” than the DJ Kicks, not that that isn’t also great.
