Kottonmouth Kings Release Mind Bending New Album “Mile High August 14th & Assemble Massive Underground Tour With Strange Music’s Prozak, Big B & Moonshine Bandits
On Aug 14, 2012, The Kottonmouth Kings will release their most prolific and smashing record to date, “Mile High”. The Kottonmouth Kings are flying high and delivering lyrical gymnastics over sonic soundscapes that will blow speakers from coast to coast. To celebrate the release of their most potent album to date, The Kottonmouth Kings are taking their mind bending brand of rip-hop on the road for one of the most anticipated underground packages this year, the Mile High Tour. The Kottonmouth Kings scoured the land and enlisted only the freshest groups to join them for this monumental tour and recruited horror master Prozak, underground heavyweight Big B, and country hip-hop misfits the Moonshine Bandits.
“It’s tour is going to be insane touring around such a powerful record as ‘Mile High’. After the last dope run with Twiztid, I think this tour is going to be bananas,” said the Dirtball. “The tour is smack in the middle of the summer, and the beats will be banging all night for the crowd! We are ready for action!”“Mile High” is the Kottonmouth Kings on steroids with a twist of ecstasy and a pot brownie. “Mile High” has the Kings passing the mic around like the Harlem Globetrotters pass a basketball and spitting lyrical fire. To help “Mile High” truly take flight, the Kings were joined in the studio by some of the sickest emcees in the underground including Swollen Members, Jahred from (Hed)p.e., Mickey Avalon, and the demented duo Twiztid. “Mile High” will also contain a deluxe bonus disc that contains all the original Kings together again with Saint Dog on record for the first time since they recorded 1998’s “Royal Highness”. To tie it all together the Kings created some mind altering X-Rated album artwork for that is only available for a limited time online.
