King's X is a hard rock band originally from Springfield, Missouri, USA. Known for their unique blend of progressive metal, funk, and soul, the band incorporates vocal arrangements influenced by gospel, blues, and British Invasion rock groups.

The band consists of Doug Pinnick on bass and vocals, Ty Tabor on guitar and vocals, and Jerry Gaskill on drums and vocals. Together, they create a powerful sound that has captivated audiences worldwide.

With past members including Dan McCollam on rhythm guitar and Kirk Henderson also on rhythm guitar at different points in their career, King's X has consistently pushed boundaries with their music.

King's X lie somewhere between progressive rock and hard rock, and nowhere is that more evident than on this album. They're at their best when rocking out, as on the fast, acrobatic "Moanjam," which occasionally reminds one of Queen's "Headlong." With the slower, delicate "Six Broken Soldiers," they veer more toward Pink Floyd territory; "Fine Art of Friendship" has a fine midtempo groove and some excellent riffs. King's X enjoy harmonizing, as just about every song includes backing vocals, or else two or more of the band members share the lead. The only problem here is that they overdo it, making what could be a series of special moments into just another effect. This, coupled with overly slick production, prevents Faith Hope Love from being a great album. However, it is good, with some fine moments that help make up for its shortcomings.
