Sworn To The King's myspace page

Sworn To The King were a 4 piece band from Auckland containing members of The Randoms, Grind Thugs, and a Spanish dude from a band called Enoch Aardon. Sworn To The King were around for the beginning months of 2009 and in that time they played only 2 or 3 shows and released an EP. Sadly they were forced to disband as Spanish guitarist, Ruben Quiros had to go back to Spain.

Sworn To The King play dirty, noisy and sort of depressing sounding Post Punk (remember I'm not too good with deciphering genres, so I'm probably wrong on the "Post Punk" call), drawing influences from Joy Division and Grey Daturas. Their songs consist of epic, loud and messy parts which will suddenly change into calmer yet sort of "boppy" sounding parts, similar to those heard in Joy Division or The Pixies.
