Words by Anselm Anderson 

King's County is a hard rock act from  Orlando, Florida. The quartet play hard-hitting rock with pulsating riffs and soaring melodies. They combine a 90's sound with a more modern edge, full of catchy choruses and memorable hooks. The band consists of Rob Dexter ( Vocals, Bass), Steve Bell ( Guitars), Rob Kania ( Guitars) and Joe Lopez ( Drums).

Bleed These Tears is the follow up to 7 reasons ( Click here to listen) is due out on May 15th. The track was produced by Grammy- award-winning producer Chuck Alkazian and features  Ted Nugent drummer Jason Hartless and Ratt guitarist Jordan Ziff on solo.

The track opens with a distorted, frenetic riff that seems to spur Dexter into life with cries of ooohh, ooohh over thumping drums and an infectious groove that grows with intensity throughout. Dexter's melodic vocals are suited to this modern rock track that would benefit any commercial radio station. The energetic guitar play helps elevate the vocal timbre to a softening roar capped by a thunderous solo by the aforementioned Ziff.

Dexter explains the personal meaning behind the song “Bleed These Tears” was written about a close friend of the bands. It’s a sobering look into the effects of self-mutilation and the physical and emotional scars it leaves behind
