Here's what folks are saying about " The Kingdom Is On Fire "!
"Putting their own original western spin on gothic country music, the Sons have delivered a beautiful brimstone masterpiece with The Kingdom Is On Fire... an absolutely phenomenal album from start to finish."
-Jared Morningstar, Hank In Chains
"It's one of the most original and doomed country records to come out since 'Satan is Real'.... A goddamn masterpiece."
-Lonesome Wyatt, Those Poor Bastards
"It really captures the spookiness and creepiness that hides in the shadows of America's backwaters and forgotten places... [with] moments of really transcendant beauty."
-Jeff Zentner, Solo Artist and Creech Holler
"...a funeral march of depression awash in moonshine, blood and the Bible. Thirteen tracks (how fitting) of the blackest and bleakest country and western tunes moaning about the depths of Hell in the human spirit, sea monsters, and the Civil War."
-Adel Souto, Feast of Hate and Fear
"...Sons of Perdition take Nick Cave’s blood-ballads to their logical conclusion, with desolate, bone-dry ditties straight off the back porch in some Hills Have Eyes mutant hillbilly nightmare. It’s frankly devastating stuff."
- Sleazegrinder
"As black as a crow's feather and twice as stark... There's a looming, archaic quality to "The Kingdom Is On Fire", as if Zebulon and co. were the long-time house band for purgatory." (4 out of 5)
-Dave Alexander, Rue Morgue Magazine
"Dirges of revenge, suicide, god and satan alike, and the human spirit in the most honest of lights."
-Autopsy IV, Nine Bullets
"The Sons are masters of loneliness, despair and they carry with them a most unearthly fear of God."
-Ashlee Elfmann,
Swampland
"The Kingdom Is On Fire is crammed with thirteen tales of sweet revenge, suicide, the coming of the lord and the treachery of Satan.... There's just not enough praise you can give this album."
-Black Angel, Black Angel Promotions
"I spent the morning after... wrestling with the moral questions posed by this album.... Reverend Whatley is a Voltaire of a man, preaching the gospel of the truth."
- Billy Sheppard
"Imagine if Bryan Ferry fronted a gospel/bluegrass band; weirdly enjoyable."
-Dan Hopper, Best Week Ever
"Like finding a severed finger in your salsa.... Imagine a mariachi that has just had a lobotomy and now roams the countryside on horseback telling sad tales of death and despair." (CD of the Month)
-Patricia Valery, evilneedles
"The sound is as cryptic and mysterious as the man who made it.... I get the feeling of being lost in some lonesome ghost town, surrounded by extreme, snake handling, religious fanatics that have resorted to cannibalism and other deviant behaviour due to the devout faith and service to the lord."
-J. Parsons, Le Artiste
"The Kingdom is on Fire is one of the best country albums to come out since the Depression era. Zebulon Whatley has pushed the boundaries of what you can do with country music."
-Joel Morales, Wayward Souls Productions
