I saw Fu Manchu for the first time a month ago, and during the show, a crowdsurfer knocked the microphone stand into the crowd when they were playing this song. This was right before the "king of the road says you move too slow" part started, so a random fan and I started screaming the lyrics into the microphone in an attempt to help keep the show going. The band was totally digging it, but security got pissed and snatched it back up after a couple of minutes. Damn, that was an amazing show...
I've only seen them in (small) Bars in Phila ...and DAMN can you image all that music straight up in in your FACE!!! Life affirming furshur!!!!! The BEST...!
I feel the urge, the growing need to buy a van, quit my job and spend the rest of my days driving around smoking high end marijuana and listening to this forever !! Who wants to go with me ??
@@SutekhTheDestroyer when you show up with the beer well steel your credit cards AAA card cell phone glue feet into high heels glue a wig on your head tattoo makeup on your face put you in a dress & bag & sell you to a pi
One of Stoner Metal's greatest songs.92-2002 were the golden years of this type of music, formed 5 minutes after Kyuss broke up.These guys,Nebula,Orange Goblin,Mushroom River Band,Atomic Bitchwax, Dozer,Unida,Sheavy....I could go on for a long time.
+Jeremy Rose dunno about you guys but i think that Atomic Bitchwax is one of the most underestimated band EVER!!! sad, i wish more people have a chance to listen to their musical genius But......thats jus me ;) CHEERS

I lived in my VW camper here in Colorado for 2 years back in the 90’s...summer I was able to park down by the river right in town...cops never rousted me once...best days of my life...no bills while working a full time job...I was buying rounds of drinks a lot! Haha
all these new bands with their electronic voice overs or whatever can't shred like this. We're stoners, acid heads, and beach slobs, not ravers like these yokels today. People ask what am I listening to? "The tunes dancing in my brain, man". Solid riffs, guys. Keep 'em coming.
lol yokel is one of my favorite words in the english language, for full effect though, use 'slack jawed yokel'. always reminds of cleetus from the simpsons lmao
dude I hope one day I get to lead the charge of 300+ horses down the street, that would be fucking insane, cars would be like what the hell why are there so many horses, people would get trampled and shit, that would be cool.
The universal eyes tell me where to go White line movin' slow Million miles an hour headfirst and alone All I got is tuck and roll All through my head It's happenin' over again Under forty over is U.F.O. Hell bent stacked in rows The galaxy is lined with hundreds more Small town, you bet we're sure All through my head It's happenin' over again As the day is long they keep movin' on King of the Road says "You move too slow!" Laughin' at the notion of a signal light Knew we'd gone too far No one knew what happened but it seemed alright We quickly jumped in the car All through my head it's happenin' over again Fu Manchu - King Of The Road Lyrics | MetroLyrics
Fu Manchu never lost it. They have a new album coming out that sounds really good! Of course it isn't the mid 90's stuff but they are still staying true to there sound. One of the best bands ever.
I knew that somewhere hibernating on an unbeaten path there was a band putting out some great rock'n'roll tracks. And this morning I heard THIS band and felt like my day was worth while.
Years ago I was bike courier cruising around town making a buck. Whenever I got the call for a hot package,the volume went to ear bleed and on came King Of The Road……the package ALWAYS got there in time. For that 4.5 mins…..I WAS THE KING OF THE ROAD AND YOU ALL MOVED WAY TOO SLOW. 😉 Great times for just givin’er. Cheers for the post. 👍👍
Fu Manchu saved my life. I was beginning to think I enjoyed death metal then saw them open for anthrax. I started getting laid again with girls, my polo shirts increased 10 fold, and my sideburns finally grew in.
Jessie James @ West Coast Choppers turned me on to these guys & been hooked ever since!! Love the vans,a 71’ E250 window van was my first vehicle (I put the flairs,damn & side pipes on it , my parents were let me loose on it 👍👍)
one of the best american bands of all time,this band should be more well know,when i hear the shit out now i cant see why these guys and a few other great bands arent getting the proper respect.
Die Hard "FU MANCHU'S" Latest Album is freaking GNARLEY! "SIGNS OF INFINITE POWER" shows this band gains experience along the way, unlike most that get worse with age or just die out all together! Awesome Surf/Skate Music (a must have: waterproof MP3/FLAC player & ear buds for Surfing & Skating)
Haven't had the chance to see Fu Manchu live ,but seen NEBULA 98,02... Sourvein (with Liz Buckingham)04....Weedeater 18.......SuperHeavyGoat 07...... .Eyehategod and Buzzoven at the Expo Extreme Chicago 97.
Ha ha!!!! Me to dude!!! every time I listen to this while I drive I speed!! "Get out of my way cunts!!!!!" Damn well cost me my fuckin license fuckin Fumanchu!!!
It s funny you said that. I once made a mix-CD for a buddy, and wrote on it "Songs you shouldn't drive to". This song was on it. So were Sweet Willy Rollbar by The Melvins, and Impetus by Clutch....very dangerous song mix.
