On the heels of his blistering first single from the upcoming album, Shades, acclaimed King’s X guitarist, songwriter, and co-vocalist Ty Tabor has released the album’s latest single, “Insane”.
The hard-hitting track features a devastating solo from Ty amongst thick layers of guitars and a tight rhythm section. “Insane” builds upon the brooding and intense atmosphere of first single “Sister Genocide,” laying the bedrock of Ty’s forthcoming solo offering out on March 4.

Shades is out on March 4 via Rat Pak Records. The upcoming album features 10 brand new songs with 3 bonus tracks and follows the successful release of 2018’s Alien Beans. Shades is available for pre-order in various configurations including CD, vinyl and digital download, here.
From the opening chords of “Come Home,” it is clear that Ty Tabor’s trademark guitar tone lays the bedrock for his latest solo release Shades. Ty tackles a wide array of emotions and topics with layered harmonies, hooky pop sensibilities, and the total riffage that remains a crucial ingredient to the King’s X sound. Songs like “What You’re Thinking,” “One Drop Of Water,” and “Doesn’t Linger” show Ty’s penchant for crafting tunes with tremendous melodies, while songs like “Shallow,” and “Your Fantasy,” trend heavy and exemplify why Ty is one of the most influential guitarists of the last three decades.
