King for a Day was formed in April 2004 to “play an original brand of acoustic Brit-pop with a hint of folk/rock and freak-beat thrown in for good measure,” according to the band’s myspace page. What you’ll be thinking when you hear this CD: Just wow. Another amazing band Colorado has generated. Just wow. King for a Day is high-energy, focused pop that gives a nod to earlier eras -- think Oasis meets the Monkeys -- without feeling like they are wannabes. Nice use of samples give them an artsy, flippant feel even though this is serious music produced by serious talent that has made the rounds in this town. Further evidence: The band is up for a Westword Music Showcase award under the Indie Pop category, and there will be no surprises when they take that. They are fully actualized. Good stuff!
