King's X - Faith Hope Love

Review by Alicia Helsley

Faith Hope Love is the third studio album by American rock band King's X. Released in 1990, the album marked a turning point in the band's career, as it showcased their unique blend of heavy metal, funk, and progressive rock.

The album opens with the powerful "We Are Finding Who We Are," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The band's signature harmonies and intricate guitar work are on full display, as they deliver a message of self-discovery and self-acceptance.

Other standout tracks include "It's Love," which features a catchy chorus and a funky bassline, and "Legal Kill," a hard-hitting critique of the death penalty.

One of the album's strengths is its diversity. From the soulful ballad "I'll Never Get Tired of You" to the epic prog-rock of "Six Broken Soldiers," King's X demonstrates their versatility and musical prowess.

King's X - I had never heard of their music before seeing "Faith Hope Love" among the best Christian message albums. I am glad I chose to listen to this album and now it has stayed as a very good hard rock album in my CD collection for years. I love this kind of style with heavy good riffs and the vocals are loud and clear. The message is great - perfect - it is love in Christ. "Its' Love" is perhaps my favorite song of the album - it makes me smile. I actually like "We are Finding Who We Are" - the title is so true. One of the purposes for living is to see what things we humans are capable of doing and how good or bad we are as persons. "Fine Art of Friendship" is another great jam. "Moanjam" is a wonderful six minute "snack". "I Can't Help It" is one of great song too - "We Were Born to Be Loved" and the title song are very good and "Legal Kill" is one of the best songs with the first two songs IMO.It is over an hour but I think it is somehow is very good time for me. There are no bad songs. There are big songs only few but many good songs.

Hadn't heard this song since back then. Good band. Not my go to type of stuff but the Beatles esque and harmonies and guitar work - and the rest is pretty choice. Forgive me due to the resolution of the video. But is that Frikin Zappa that comes out of the water under the boat?? I'm thinking it is, that's nuts. I know i seen this video more than a few times back in those days but i never noticed that. Or at least i don't remember if i did.

THIS is why your parent's childhood was the greatest...

Kings 10. A very rebellious Christian rock group. I love these guys and have since, at least, 1990.

The harmony vocals. Incredible!

young Ty looks like Tom Cruise with long hair

What a band... ironic how the guys they influenced got wide recognition, but theirs was so discrete. BTW: I've always thought Jerry looks like Geddy Lee's lost brother.

BTW2: King's X are the actual torchbearers of the "Beatlesque sound" in Metal. Those 3 piece choruses... man. Sublime.
