GUNS UP!

KING NIKO RELEASES NEWEST SINGLE, "GUNS UP."
Salt Lake City.  January 24, 2012. 
By RW

King Niko, who's most recent single "Intentions" has been in rotation across the country, today released their latest single digitally.  "Guns Up" has already been getting radio play in King Niko's hometown of Salt Lake City and today is available for download on iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon and bandcamp.com.  The song can also be streamed for free on popular sites like Spotify, Grooveshark and Soundcloud.  

King Niko frontman Ransom Wydner describes "Guns Up" as "a song about urgency and the impetus to live right this second--not in some cheesy way, but in a very real and very gritty way.  It's a song about living as much as it's a song about dying."  The song's catchy chorus, shout-along hooks and compelling verses are bolstered by driving bass and drums, pulsating keys and guitar riffs that cut to the bone.  

Guns Up was recorded at MetCom Studios in downtown Salt Lake City by Producer/Engineer Mateo Coletti who also recorded King Niko's last single "Intentions."
