"...welcome King Of Spain with open arms...this album stands as a homage to a great school of underground indie...awesome."
NME 8/10 

King Of Spain are a four piece hailing from Balham, South London. Their much anticipated debut album 'Battleships and Aeroplanes' is out now on pioneering Oxford label Shifty Disco. Album track Bacon has been selected by William Ravenscroft (son of the late, great John Peel) as one of his gems of 2008 and has already received airplay on Tom Robinson’s BBC 6 Music show this year.

King Of Spain, who have been together for 3 years, were also featured on ShiftyDisco10, a triple CD compilation album celebrating the Indie label’s tenth birthday back in 2007. They also run 'flux=rad', a regular night at London's legendary 12 Bar Club aimed at showcasing the best in lo-fi/alternative music.
