I was late to the party on TK & The Holy Know-Nothings but as they say – Better late than never! This is one of those albums that have non-country fans loving “country”. Self described by TK himself as “psychedelic doom boogie” explains it a bit. It hits differently & it sounds differently than much of the country music most are accustomed to. But the playing, stories & song writing is still extremely strong. There’s boogie, there’s slower songwriter story tunes & there’s everything in between. I recommend this album to 9 of my 10 friends during the week. And all 10 of them on a Friday evening

“The Incredible Heat Machine by TK & the Holy Know-Nothings is a study in excellent songwriting & melodies that get the listener moving. Kingman has a way of telling a story that is vivid in detail & easy to relate to. It’s safe to say that listening to this album will make you want to explore what else the band has to offer”

“There’s a good reason why Taylor Kingman refers to his band’s music as “psychedelic doom boogie.” It’s the sort of kitchen sink label that pokes at the industry’s need for categorization. you’re new to the Know-Nothings, just picture the best kind of bar band, a collective of seasoned players from Oregon who veer just a bit more vulnerable than vicious. The Incredible Heat Machine’s 11 tracks are tailor-made for the live setting & it’s hard not to envision the band in full regalia delivering these songs to a rowdy yet receptive crowd”

“The Incredible Heat Machine & establishes most of the precedents with which the album plays, the power of this running never wanes – not even once – as it progresses”
