To Kill A King

To Kill A King’s sound begins with lead singer Ralph Pelleymounter’s acoustic songs, around which the band work in drums, bass, electric guitar, synth and other instruments. They focus on Pelleymounter’s lyrical narrative, with accompaniments ranging from tender instrumentals to climactic orchestral passages including strings, brass and five-part harmonies. This combination has been described as “rousing orch-folk….multilayered songs complicated in structure but straight to the emotional point” (The Guardian), and “smooth and emotive” (Q Magazine)
