The current renaissance of Oi! and Oi!-influenced music has had worldwide reverberations. This has been felt throughout humanity, and beyond. Echos of “The Sound Of The Street” have even reached the hidden jungle metropolis of Gorilla City. And thus, TKO Records is now proud to introduce KONG KONG.

Landing on an adequate and concisely description of KONG KONG is a challenge… If you can imagine a huge hominid fronting a band, kicking out catchy tunes that fall into a nebulous gray area between the toughest Oi! and the sweetest power pop, then you’re getting close.

Since 2020, KONG KONG has released one phenomenal 7” EP after another, but apart from a limited cassette release, their music have seen only minimal distribution outside of the jungles of Europe. Luckily, TKO has been entrusted with the stateside distribution of Gorilla City’s finest musical import, announcing the release of Gorilla Anthems – Collection: 2020-2025. Gorilla Anthems collects some of the best selections from KONG KONG’s EPs, as well as two new, LP-exclusive tracks, one each for the North American and European versions.

What more can be said? If a band of gorillas delivering master-crafted punk tunes doesn’t make you go bananas, then maybe the band won’t a-peel to you…
