King of Spain

Ruler of Spain began in 2007 being a single task for Tampa, Florida songwriter Matt Slate, formerly of rings such as for example Pohgoh. Slate performed by itself with electric guitar and notebook accompaniment, completing initial recording Entropy in 2008. Entropy was an extremely insular affair, merging ambient soundscapes with Brian Wilson-esque harmonies, appropriated by Slate’s husky multitracked tone of voice. In ’09 2009 the music group extended to a duo with the help of Daniel Wainright on bass and a number of other devices. They following surfaced by means of 2012 sophomore launch All I DID SO Was INFORM THEM te Truth plus they Thought IT HAD BEEN Hell. This extensively-titled recording was funded partly by on-line pledges from followers, and required a change toward the darker part from the pop ambient pop range.
