<p><strong>We're incredibly excited to announce the release of our brand new, already-triple-platinum multi-universal smash sophomore recording, <em>MUSICALLY & MORALLY BANKRUPT</em>. </strong></p>
<p><strong><a contents="" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://zrking.com/merch" target="_blank"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/80862/8a502e9e2ff8ecc32e70392ec17e3cec5f445e66/original/mmb-zrk-blk.jpg/!!/undefined/b:W1sic2l6ZSIsImxhcmdlIl1d.jpg" class="size_xl justify_center border_" /></a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Now available on <a contents="Spotify" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://open.spotify.com/album/4Xjc29laY2J4MG5lL1fY1K?si=DebwWW55QB2nUkuiVM0szg" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a contents="iTunes" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/musically-morally-bankrupt/1455991170" target="_blank">iTunes</a>, <a contents="Pandora" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.pandora.com/artist/zr-king/musically-and-morally-bankrupt/ALjnp7w7KkzKn6V" target="_blank">Pandora</a>, <a contents="SoundCloud" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://soundcloud.com/zr-king" target="_blank">SoundCloud</a>, and all the other streaming platforms you can shake a stick at. Tune in for an unparalleled listening experience. See our take below: </strong></p>
<p>The latest Zr. King release, <em>Musically & Morally Bankrupt</em>, is a particularly exciting collection given the songs are some of the first the band ever wrote together. There's a stripped down brashness here that is a testament to their songwriting history and notoriously ferocious live shows. </p>
<p>The band again collaborated with legendary producer/engineer Jerry Ramos (owner of Mercury Recording Studio in Rahway, NJ), cultivating a razor sharp attack that arms this rock outfit with a bloodthirstiness known only to ancient Greek infantry divisions, extinct carnivorous dinosaurs, and the largest of great white sharks. </p>
<p>Zr. King’s sound is frequently described as akin to a melodic jet engine chewing up geese as it screams through the sky. Please direct your attention to the front of the cabin for an important briefing: this aircraft has no emergency exits, no seatbelts, and runs exclusively on a haunted mix of whiskey, adrenaline, charcuterie, and mammoth quantities of Du Pont Straight and Du Pont Red Cross. Twin 120DB turbo engines function at dual speeds; thrill & kill. The sonic collision of all these elements yields a powder keg that can turn on a dime or erupt into a seismic inferno at any second. Did you know if you mix equal parts Zr. King and frozen orange juice concentrate you can make napalm? If you didn't, it's time you found out. </p>

The record is blazing along like a glorious bonfire – we’ll have some samples to share very soon! <br><br>
Next weekend will mark one of the last tracking sessions to finish up some vocals (that we just wrote!) for our last two songs: <i>City of Industry</i> and <i>Fox Island Archipelago</i>.<br><br>
You know what’s going to happen when you put this CD in your car stereo? Your car is going to explode! Not really, because that would suck, and you’d die, but you’ll feel that way, and all the people on the strip at the beach will be all like, <br><br><b>“Hey! Check out that dude/lady in that car! It’s fixin’ to explode! The music sounds so epic!”</b><br><br>
And who doesn’t want that to be what they do in the last month of this tremendless summer?<br><br><i>We’ll start over again, by the light of this pyre.<br>

Well, we've done it. We've laid the framework for what will be our debut record! Jerry Ramos at Mercury Recording Studio was able to capture all our explosiveness and panache in the live setting. No click tracks, no prisoners taken, no challenges denied.
