King Khan And The Shrines - Idle No More

The soul-garage freakout warriors King Khan & The Shrines have been away for a while, but they’ll be back this fall with a new album called Idle No More, one that, according to Khan himself, is “about the state of the world we live in today.” The first song we’ve heard from the album is a fiery, charged-up number called “Born To Die,” and its horn-happy mayhem has nothing to do with Lana Del Rey. Also, the band’s wild live show is going on the road this fall. Listen to “Born To Die” and check out the band’s dates below.
