King Tuff w/Stonefield
The Back Room at Colectivo 2211 N. Prospect Ave., Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202
While it would be easy to think of King Tuff’s new album, ‘The Other’ as a kind of reinvention for the band, frontman Kyle Thomas views the entire experience of the record as a kind of psychic reset, and something not totally removed from what he’s done in the past. “I can’t help but sound like me,” he says. “It’s just that this time I let the songs lead me where they wanted to go, instead of trying to push them into a certain zone. King Tuff was always just supposed to be me. When I started doing this as a teenager, it was whatever I wanted it to be. King Tuff was never supposed to be just one thing. It was supposed to be everything.”
