Media: King Khan and The Shrines: "The Supreme Genius of King Khan and the Shrines"

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by adam on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 at 3:00 PM (EDT)

Montreal-via-Berlin's King Khan and the Shrines are streaming their newly released North American compilation The Supreme Genius of King Khan and the Shrines. The set features tracks from the 12-piece rock band's history with liner notes by Jared Swilley the Black Lips. The band released What Is? last year.

Khan is of course one half of the acclaimed King Khan and BBQ Show with his former Spaceshits bandmate Mark Sultan.

I'm seeing with Black Lips in August for free. It's going to rule.

Mr. Reatard is quite a showman by the way. A really good, fast show.

NIce, I'll be at the empty bottle show, provided I can get tickets on Saturday morning.

It's in my head to go but I don't know if I'll be able to handle the crowd. Most of the people at Jay's show in February were bad enough, I can't imagine what it'll be like when it's billed as a "Pitchfork After Party" thing.

I got this double LP at a local record store the other day. It is really good.

If all goes well I'll be seeing Mark Sultan doing his solo gig and the then the Shrines two weeks later. I'm a huge fan of all of these guys' projects and didn't think I'd get a chance to see either of them.

Pretty cool to see the Shrines starting to get a little bit of buzz in North America. They are far too good to be ignored.

King Khan and the BBQ is way better than KK&TS
