King Size
King Size are back and louder than ever. The no-nonsense pop-punk quartet from the Venice area of Italy have returned with their long-awaited fourth studio album – the self-titled King Size – and it’s every bit the rowdy, riff-heavy celebration fans have been craving. Formed in 2002, the band has built their name on blistering live shows, military-inspired stagewear, and a sound best described as “Chuck Berry wearing a mohawk jamming with The Clash.” And after more than a decade since their last album Guess It, the boys are clearly making up for lost time.
This latest 10-track LP marks a major milestone for the group, celebrating 20 years of friendship, fuel, and feedback. Recorded in Treviso with producer and friend Davide Dall’Acqua and released under Hot Studio Record via Kazemijazi Management, the record blends high-octane punk with gritty heart. There’s real emotional weight tucked under all the fuzz—like on “Sick People,” a hometown tribute dripping in nostalgia, and “Running,” a punk scream yearning for belonging. “Million Stairs” slows things down with a country-infused ballad about love and life’s long climb, while “Into the Town” serves up a stream-of-consciousness love letter set to frantic chords.
Having shared stages with acts like The Hives and I Ministri, King Size know how to command a crowd—and this album brings that same sweaty, stage-diving energy straight to your speakers. It’s fast, fun, and unapologetically real. Available now on limited edition vinyl (only 200 copies!), King Size feels like both a love letter to their past and a punk-charged promise for the future.
If you’ve ever wanted to rage, reflect, and dance like no one’s watching—all in the same breath—this is your moment. Press play, turn it up, and salute the kings of Italian punk.
