The singer, songwriter, guitarist, and keyboardist raised eyebrows with the 2010 single "Out Getting Ribs," released under the alias Zoo Kid, which showcased his distinctively raw voice. Anticipation for Marshall's first album grew as the song earned him a spot on various high-profile "artists to watch" lists, as well as a nomination in BBC's Sound of 2013 poll.
In 2013, while still a teenager, Marshall released the first King Krule album, 6 Feet Beneath the Moon, on XL in the U.K. and True Panther in the U.S. Marshall then collaborated with his brother Jack for the relatively fluid, more electronic A New Place 2 Drown. Released in 2015 and credited to Archy Marshall, its physical edition was packaged with a 208-page book of poetry, photography, and art. King Krule fully reactivated in 2017 with a handful of varied singles -- the dreamlike ballad "Czech One," the mid-tempo rocker "Dum Surfer," and the rumbling "Half Man Half Shark," all featuring saxophone from Ignacio Salvadores -- that led up to The Ooz, an hour-long follow-up written during a three-year period.

Rock Bottom
King Krule Lyrics
This is dedicated
To a Mr. Bream
A Mr. Read
A Mr. Piney
And a Mr. Mood
I've hit rock bottom
Ooh now I'm running away
I've made it babe
Think of what your lover would say
Think in a properly way
See girl, I won't say it
Until it finds me
One day
My mind starts to derange
Distortion to rage
As sight loses its range
As everyone's perspective begins to change
Ooh, I'm the same
Just something to blame
Another thing wrong with the game
Watch me as I descend
Into shame
Into
Into shame
Into
Into shame
When your hearts got no more
You're lying dead on the floor
The wounds in your back are still sore
And everyone who watched you
Watched on in awe
But now you see you're nothing but poor
Another lost soul
Never accomplished a goal
Or made a light out of their lives
And they're the ones who pulled out the knifes
Lying there
Oh, like that, everything is gone in front of your eyes
Your hand shave lost the grip on their prize
And you've got no more tries
Cause you've lost them through lies
Oh but your lucky this time
And hopefully it'll make you seem more wise
Or otherwise
They'll leave you to your own demise
'Cause it's the end of something I did not want to end
Beginning of hard times to come
Something that was not meant to be is done
I guess it's the start of what was

God knows how many times I have actually hit rock bottom. I'm a huge failure and can't believe I actually lived to be an adult.
Anyways, this goes out to all us who should be responsible adults, but can't go all the way.
We're gonna get there!
Oh, this track is fucking awesome, by the way!

I've hit rock bottom
Well now I'm running away
I've made it babe
Think what your lover would say
Think in a brotherly way
See girl I won't say
Until it finds me
One day
My mind starts to derange
Distortions arrange
As sight loses its range
As everyones perspective begins to change
Well I'm not sane
Just something to blame
Another thing wrong with the game
And watch me as I descend into shame
Into
Into shame
Into
Into shame
Well your heart's got no more
You're lying dead on the floor
The wound's on your back are still sore
And everyone that watched you watched on in awe
But now you see you was nothing but poor
Another lost soul never accomplished a goal
Or made a light out of their lives
And they're the ones that pulled out the knives
And like that
Oh, everything has gone in front of your eyes
Your hands have lost their grip on their prize
And you've got no more tries
Cos you've lost them through lies
And hopefully it'll make you seem more wise
Or otherwise
They'll leave you to your own demise
Cos it's the end of something I did not want to end
Beginning of hard times to come
But if something that was not meant to be has done
And this is
The start of what was

A year ago, this song, along with others, really helped me through a brutal break up & depression.
If anyone is visiting this because of feelings, just know that things really will get better. It takes time, but time is all we have. Love yourself, and love others. You're great.

I'm not great. Me and my bf were equally as bad as each other because of repressed not dealt with problems but I will be moving somewhere random and be a homeless asexual witch now
Owl Thrower
idk why but his music helps me to cope with the fact that the country I live in went completely freaked up and started a pointless fratricidal war and there's nothing I can do about that and that there's no hope whatsoever and shit will only get worse and the only thing that keeps me from going more deranged is listening to this ginger kiddo. beginning of hard times to come
