Rhythm and Bruise

Rhythm and Bruise is the debut album by American Metal / Hard Rock band King Hell!, released in the USA by the King Hell! record label on 5 October 2009. The album includes a cover version of Duran Duran's "Hungry Like The Wolf".

About the album
The album was recorded by King Hell!, a band formed in New York and originally called Longinus. After releasing their debut EP in 2007 on Seventh Level Records, the band began building a strong following throughout New York, quickly branching out to play shows across New England and the Tri-State area.

Towards the end of 2008, King Hell! began work on their first full-length recording, Rhythm and Bruise, a 13 song strong album that spans musical styles from Swedish Metal, to Heavy Funk.

The album was recorded at Kaleidoscope Sound studios in Edison NJ. To capture the electricity of the band's live shows, the CD was recorded almost entirely live in-studio by Sal Mormando, who also mixed and co-produced it.
