 Blast from the Past April 12, 2008

Sure, they take a little (ok maybe a lot) from a few bands, most notably Plant and Zep. Still, this band could sure deliver. Good stuff!
GOOD INTRODUCTION TO KINGDOM COME December 6, 2005

This album is a good introduction to Kingdom Come. I think there should have been more songs on this one. Examples are "Loving You"(this was also released as a single/video),"Shout It Out", "Highway 6" "Perfect O" "You'll Never Know" "Both Of Us" and "Stay". Maybe throw in some live tracks,b-sides and a few demos and you would have a double album that fans would buy. The record company should know that fans are the ones buying this album and not anyone new wanting to check it out(sad but true) so why not go ahead and make it right the first time.
The bottom line is this is a good introduction to Kingdom Come. It features all the band's hits and most of their singles including "Get It On" and "What Love Can Be," two of the band's essential songs. I just wanted it to be longer and at least put on their other single "Loving You" and maybe "Highway 6" as they would have fit on this cd.

If you were around during the '80s when metal ruled the music scene then you surely remember Kingdom Come, and all the criticism they received concerning their sound. Many people wrote them off as nothing more than a cheap imitation, and total "rip off" of Led Zeppelin. The problem with those who did is those individuals who thought Lenny Wolf sounded just like Robert Plant must be tone deaf. Although KIngdom Come was not the most original band to emerge in the '80s, they did deliver a nice collection of blues-based hard rock songs and power ballads. Get It On was very "Zep sounding", but Kingdom Come did try to develop its own sound as the band progressed. This particular disc does deliver the best songs, and if you enjoy blues-based hard rock tunes then you should pick this up. And you can make up your own mind about the band, and the comparisons to Zeppelin. If a singer is going to sound similar to an already established great then he can't go wrong sounding like one of rock's greatest lead vocalists.
German Hard Rock! May 19, 2004

Along with the Scorpions and Accept, Kingdom Come was a hard rock band from Germany. They sounded similar to Whitesnake in that they were very Led Zeppelin influnced. Although they didn't rip off Zeppelin so much as the aforementioned band. The songs are hard, catchy and a little commercial, but still they were great rock 'n' roll. And although their success was short-lived, Kingdom Come made a large impact on the face of commercial hard rock. This is similar to the Scorpions and Whitesnake. If you like either of those bands, you will like this.
