King of the World - The Raw Project (2026) [Hi-Res]

Multiple Dutch Blues Award winners King of the World have released their ninth album, The RAW Project, marking a radical shift in their artistic direction. The band abandoned their signature flawless studio production in favor of spontaneity, raw emotion, and old-school blues roots, capturing the contemporary zeitgeist of hardship and hope. Renowned across the Benelux blues-rock scene, the ensemble—featuring acclaimed musicians Stef Delbaere, Govert van der Kolm, Marlon Pichel, and Ruud Weber—presents a more intimate and uncompromising body of work. The allocation of co-lead vocals between Pichel and Weber injects an additional raw dimension into the album's dynamic.
