Artist Biography
Alternative rock four-piece Future Kings of Spain, in spite of their misleading title, formed in Dublin, Ireland in 2000. Their eclectic though not groundbreaking style ranges from secure, cathartic indie pop to virulent hardcore punk, taking in shades of noise experts Sonic Youth and Jesus Lizard, as well as grunge forerunners Dinosaur Jr. and Pixies. Their cultivation of the best of '80s alternative made them critics' darlings in their home country and a healthy following in the difficult to reach foreign markets, but contract wrangling has limited their output to just two full-length albums since their formation. ~ Dave Donnelly
