Album Notes & Community Reviews

Rebounding after Malcolm McLaren poached his original backing band, Adam Ant recruited Marco Pirroni to craft this astonishingly vibrant, highly flamboyant new wave masterpiece. 'Kings of the Wild Frontier' is propelled by thundering, dual-drummer Burundi tribal rhythms and slashing Morricone guitars, resulting in an incredibly energetic, remarkably playful, and melodic pop sensation.
