Upstate New York's Chesterfield Kings landed upon the ontogenesis punk/new undulation scene in the former '70s with an improbably raw '60s rhythm & megrims intelligent that borrowed hard from pre-1966 Rolling Stones. The chemical group, so different any other metro sensations of the period, arguably kickstarted the entire '80s service department careen revitalisation, which flourished in modest circles until the last of the decade.
After releasing two scene-defining LPs, Here Are the Chesterfield Kings and Stop!, the combo changed its card and sound. With only isaac Bashevis Singer Greg Prevost and bassist Andy Babiuk unexpended from the Kings' 1979 incarnation, the band rescinded its assure ne'er to sound like anything from rock's post-1966 history, and began to generate a '70s Rolling Stones/Flamin' Groovies hard stone image and sheen, which culminated in its 1994 LP, Let's Go Get Stoned, a sendup/tribute of postBackwash Rolling Stones. Still, the Kings have ne'er drifted overly far from their garage band roots, and the group's subsequent albums, which include Don't Open Til Doomsday (1997), Where the Action Is (1999), The Mindbending Sounds of the Chesterfield Kings (2003), and Psychedelic Sunrise (2007), have all been cut from the same framework.
