'I Am King' is the new album from Code Orange (formerly Code Orange Kids), recorded at God City Studios by Kurt Ballou. Unpredictability is the law as Code Orange navigate through their distorted world. Title track 'I Am King' shifts from 'heavy' to 'hard to define' through the use of unorthodox guitar work/percussion and chaotic structure. While songs 'Dreams in Inertia', 'Starve', and 'Bind You' all wear an art-rock crown while claiming a metallic throne. It's not just melodious experimentation though, 'Unclean Spirit', 'My World', and 'Thinners of the Herd' show Code Orange reimagining what aggressive music can be. Elevating and expanding what can be done within the confines of it without leaving it behind entirely. Proving that Code Orange are true artists and not just 'kids' anymore.

... a chance since they always just kind of sounded like a generic Converge rip off like so many bands ...
Never gave this band much of a chance since they always just kind of sounded like a generic Converge rip off like so many bands are these days. Caught their live set at This Is Hardcore and the new material just sounded so cool, that I had to check out the record. They have definately found a cool dynamic with bringing in different rythems and the femal guitar players clean vocals on "Dreams In Intertia" and the bass sounds super chunky throughout.This album had a lot of hype coming into it, which I was skeptical of since their other stuff never impressed me, but this is definately a breath of fresh air to what is becoming a cliche sound.

Awesome Band
This is a great album from an awesome up and coming band. I never considered myself someone who was big into metalcore or hardcore, but this band is definitely changing my opinion. Buy this album and their new one "Forever" for some really good and heavy music.

Definitely the best band to come out of the modern hardcore/metalcore scene
Definitely the best band to come out of the modern hardcore/metalcore scene. These kids prove every album and show that they deserve to hang with the greats.

Excellent follow up to love is love/return to dust
Excellent follow up to love is love/return to dust. Code orange shows their maturity in this album, rightfully shedding the "kids" from their name.

Protopunk meets Converge
Possibly the best album i have heard this year, despite picking it up a year late. Dark, weird, often incomprehensibly cryptic and most importantly, heavy as hell. The good bits of early slipknot, elements of Converge and other of those more technical mathcore/hardcore bands, a hint of protopunk and nirvana-esque weirdness into the mix and you get this. Great record.

No I am king.
Really enjoyed this album, heavy and groovy and really catchy. I really enjoyed this album and see it as a great progression from there last album. I would highly recommend both albums and eps

But this is an amazing album and is worth every penny
Not a hard case but a thin cardboard-type one. But this is an amazing album and is worth every penny, I love this band

Uno de los mejores discos de hardcore
Code Orange se convirtieron en mi grupo favorito en el momento en que escuché este álbum. Y es que el I Am King combina los riffs atronadores y agresivos del hardcore con muchas influencias del metal. El grupo de Pittsburgh no paran de crecer y prometer llegar muy lejos.Si te gusta el hardcore duro y el metal, Code Orange es tu grupo.NOTA: el disco viene en edición de cartón o digipak, no en carátula de plástico
