King of England
The Hot Puppies
This sounds at first like XTC covering ‘King of Rock and Roll’ by Prefab Sprout.
With a new-wave skeleton that juts angularly from underneath a subtle synth raincoat, ‘King of England’ delivers possibly the most politically acute message of the year. ‘I’m the King of England/So bring me the head of the man who took my people to war’ is a lyric as broody and openly venomous as its jerky bass line. In effect, this is what a George Orwell essay about post-punk would sound like. Basically, it’s the puppy’s bollocks.
