KING KHAN & THE SHRINES – IDLE NO MORE

King Khan has been a celebrated cult figure in garage rock circles for almost two decades now, characterised by his wild appearance and larger than life persona. ‘Idle No More’ is the band’s first album in six years and self-proclaimed ‘masterpiece’. And while it’s named after an indigenous Canadian civil rights movement, it’s far from being hectoring polemic. Instead it’s a raucous forty minutes of good time party rock from a band who are high on life.
