About Me


NEW RADIANT STORM KING

Caleb Wetmore (The Mitchells)
On their newest offering, The Steady Hand , New Radiant Storm Kings songwriting and musicianship remain true to form, yet polished and stronger than ever. Like other great alt-guitar pioneers, NRSK lay virgin gravel road; sometimes hard and angular, sometimes uniquely smooth and pastoral. Peyton and Matts trademark vocal styles and guitar interplay are now refined to surprising precision and yet maintain the playful exuberance that people have come to expect from them over their sixteen year career. The Steady Hand is a testament to NRSKs ability to constantly push the envelope while maintaining a sound that defies any direct comparison. While their music still retains hints of their undeniable influences (Wire, Mission of Burma, My Bloody Valentine, Swervedriver, etc.). The Steady Hand was recorded by engineer/producer Mark Alan Miller at Slaughterhouse Recording Studio in Amherst, Mass- where most of NRSKs acclaimed records were tracked. The NRSK soul is as unique as ever.
