King's X is an American hard rock band noted by music critics and fans for their sophisticated sound that combines progressive metal, funk and soul with vocal arrangements influenced by gospel, blues, and British Invasion pop groups. The band's lyrics are largely based on the members' struggles with religion and self-acceptance. Since being signed to Megaforce Records in 1987, King's X has released twelve studio albums, one official live album, and several independent releases.

- King's X is an American hard rock band noted by music critics and fans for their sophisticated sound that combines progressive metal, funk and soul with vocal arrangements influenced by gospel, blues, and British Invasion pop groups. The band's lyrics are largely based on the members' struggles with religion and self-acceptance. Since being signed to Megaforce Records in 1987, King's X has released twelve studio albums, one official live album, and several independent releases. The band is currently recording for the InsideOut Music label, and continues to tour with each new release. Early in their major label career, they had many opening slots on arena tours, but lately the band, for the most part, headline their own shows playing mostly clubs and smaller venues. Each member of the group has recorded solo albums and has made numerous guest appearances on other artists' albums and compilation projects. Doug Pinnick and Ty Tabor also have albums released with side bands that they participate in. Despite the band members having varying degrees of Christian beliefs through the years and the group having had early dealings in the Contemporary Christian market, the members of King's X have never considered themselves a "Christian" band. However, some of their early lyrical themes (especially the first three albums) have led to some people labeling the group as such, which all three members strongly oppose. King's X was ranked #83 on VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock.

- King's X on yhdysvaltalainen rock-yhtye, joka on toiminut samassa triokokoonpanossa vuodesta 1980 lähtien. Eri tyylilajeja metallisrifiitelystä stemmalaulun kautta gospeliin yhdistänyt yhtye on aina ollut enemmän muusikoiden ja kriitikkojen kuin suuren yleisön suosikki.
- King's X est un groupe américain pratiquant une musique unissant le blues, le rock, le metal et la pop. Grands admirateurs des Beatles, leurs chansons sont essentiellement axées sur les mélodies, et baignent en permanence dans des harmonies vocales à trois chanteurs. Fondé en 1980, d'abord nommé The Edge, puis Sneak Preview, le nom de King's X naît officiellement en 1987, après que le groupe a signé son premier contrat chez Megaforce Records. Pendant presque vingt ans, sa formation ne variera pas. Le groupe se compose de Doug Pinnick, Ty Tabor et Jerry Gaskill. Le groupe a sorti douze albums studio, que l'on peut diviser en deux périodes bien distinctes : les quatre premiers correspondent à l'ère "Sam Taylor". L'influence de ce producteur y est en effet profonde et essentielle, tant dans le son qu'il leur confectionne (riches harmonies vocales, basse à douze cordes, sécheresse de la grosse caisse) que pour sa participation même aux compositions (la plupart du temps signées à quatre mains, sous le nom "jetydosa"). À partir de 1994, pourtant, King's X se défait de son producteur attitré, et débute une ère nouvelle avec l'album Dogman. Le son gagne en ampleur, devient dès lors plus "brut", plus grunge, et l'accent sur les harmonies vocales se fait un peu moins prononcé. Libérés de la "dictature" Sam Taylor, les trois membres du groupe vont alors essaimer au sein d'un nombre incalculable de projets parallèles (parmi lesquels on peut compter le Jelly Jam de Ty Tabor, ou le Supershine de Doug Pinnick) tout en continuant d'expérimenter sur leur groupe. Manic Moonlight voit ainsi l'apparition de boîtes à rythmes, et le dixième album (Black Like Sunday - 2003) célèbre l'anniversaire en bouclant la boucle, et en revisitant des compositions vieilles de vingt ans... piochées dans le répertoire de The Edge ou de Sneak Preview.
- I King's X sono un gruppo rock americano, composto dal bassista e cantante Doug Pinnick, dal chitarrista Ty Tabor e dal batterista Jerry Gaskill. Per un certo periodo la band si avvalse del chitarrista ritmico Dan McCollom, ma tornò presto al consueto power trio.
- King's X er et amerikansk rockeband kjent for sin sofistikerte musikk, som kombinerer progressiv rock, grunge rock, funk og soul og sang inspirert av tidlig afro-amerikansk gospel, blues og rock med sang inspirert av The Beatles. Bandets tekster dreier seg i stor grad om bandmedlemmenes vansker med religion og selvaksept.
- King's X - amerykańska grupa z nurtu metalu progresywnego.
- King's X é uma banda estadunidense de hard rock e heavy metal notada por suas letras espirituais e sua música sofisticada, o que os fazem serem considerados também como uma banda de rock progressivo.
