All you really need to know is Subpop Recording artist Mark Sultan is one half of the King Khan & BBQ Show and the â??infamousâ?? BBQ one man band. He is a singer/guitarist for Mind Controls, a drummer/singer for Les Sexareenos, and a collaborator with The Deadly Snakes, Jack Oblivian, and The Demonâ??s Claws. Heâ??s toured the world several times over as a musical vagabond of missionary proportions. Heâ??s been called everything from â??our generationâ??s Gerry Roslieâ?? to â??a visionary with the voice of an angelâ?? and â??a true rockâ??n'roll heroâ??. The Sultanic Verses, his first album as â??Mark Sultanâ??, lets him live up to these heady statements and beyond. Foregoing the one man, live recording style he perfected as â??BBQâ?? for the most part, Sultan decided to do an album recording many of the instruments himself and inviting friends to fill in the gaps. Recorded in Berlin and Montreal, the results are perfect. Proving his reputation as one of the worldâ??s finest rockâ??n'roll singers and songwriters, but also expanding his repertoire by throwing experimental, psychedelic and punk rock into his trademark mix of RnB, garage, soul and REAL rockâ??n'roll. The Sultanic Verses is 11 songs of creative genius that sets a new standard. A juke-box blowout of styles and effortless hits with absolutely no filler at all.
