KING'S X Frontman Releases iTunes-Exclusive EP Featuring Non-Album Cut
December 5, 2007KING'S X frontman Doug "Dug" Pinnick has released an iTunes-exclusive EP, entitled "Angel". The three-song release includes two tracks from Pinnick's new solo album, "Strum Sum Up", plus the cut "Blind", which isn't available anywhere else. The track listing is as follows:
01. Angel
02. Life is What You Make It
03. Blind
A five-minute video clip of Pinnick talking about his new solo album, "Strum Sum Up", can be viewed below. The CD was released on November 20 via Magna Carta Records.
"Strum Sum Up", recorded by Michael Parnin (LIMP BIZKIT, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE) at Blacksound Studio in Los Angeles, sports such gems as "Damn It", "Angel", "Coming Over" (featuring a funk diatribe that courageously rhymes "junk of your trunk" with "crunk"),"Cross It", and the explosive, inimitable "Dynomite".
"'Dynomite' is basically telling about my life and the way I felt about it," says Pinnick. "The chorus is saying, 'So, hit me with your dynamite'. I was recording and I had to stop my computer. I thought about that line. … Whenever I come up with a line like that it might take me five to ten years to figure out what I was truly trying to say. Maybe it was something that was going on deep down inside me, but I just didn't know how to verbalize it, and it comes out in these lyrics. Musically, I just love it. When the chorus kicks in, the music just slams. I can't wait to go out and do that song."
