King Krule '6 Feet Beneath the Moon' Review, Album Stream [LISTEN]: Archy Marshall's Debut Album is Angry, English, Beautiful [VIDEO]

Back in 2010, British singer-songwriter Archy Marshall released a single entitled "Out Getting Ribs" under his previous moniker, Zoo Kid. Catching attention mainly through blogs and word-of-mouth, Marshall soon had a career and a following. He was 16 at the time. Now 19 years old, Marshall has since changed his name to King Krule (inspired by King K. Rool from the video game "Donkey Kong Country"), has one self-titled EP under his belt and just released his debut album "6 Feet Beneath the Moon." This 14-track record highlights Marshall's gloomy baritone vocals and despairing lyrics over jangly guitars and British dub-beats.

Right from the start, King Krule hits listeners hard with the first single and opening track "Easy Easy." This first song shows how Krule drives his tracks even without accompaniment, and then allows the ambience to kick in for a breather. He emphasizes his guitar work as much as he can throughout "6 Feet Beneath the Moon," but the opening tracks serve as an introductory course into the mind of Archy Marshall.

You hear the most simple and beautiful guitar licks and melodies progressing through the songs, but you're grounded by Archy's mesmerizing voice. Obviously in the "unique" spectrum of vocalists, Marshall's strange voice became his niche - his way to capture listeners.

"6 Feet Beneath the Moon" is an incredibly English record. Marshall pulls from the music around him, including house, dub, pop and jazz. Differing dynamics draw some listeners to the dance floor while allowing others to chill out in a smoky haze in bed. Anger, depression, lovesickness and emptiness fill this 14-track record, spilling over into genuine beauty.

Stand out tracks include "Border Line," "Baby Blue," "Neptune Estate," "Ocean Bed" and "A Lizard State."
