The success of Attention Deficit's debut recording shouldn't have been very surprising considering that this trio worked so well together on Michael Manring's excellent Thonk. Manring, guitarist Alex Skolnick, and drummer Tim "Herb" Alexander have managed to create an original and instantly recognizable sound. The set is fine balance of introspective pieces, funky jams, and high-octane numbers such as "My Fellow Astronauts" and "Nightmare on 48th Street." While Skolnick has managed to completely reinvent himself on the guitar, both Manring and Alexander continue to push their skills into unexplored areas. Manring, a former student of Jaco Pastorius, has rightfully taken his place as the premier voice on the bass with a style unto himself. The influence of Frank Zappa is prevalent throughout and is ultimately what makes this band work so well, namely, incredible musicianship sprinkled with just the right amount of absurdity and humor. ~ Robert Taylor

Idiot King Music Review


Customer Idiot King Reviews 




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Instrumental Magic
Superb album that owes more than a passing glance to the influence (amongst others) of King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Tony Williams and "Metal Fatigue" era Allan Holdsworth. Totally instrumental - the musicianship throughout is faultless. Any listeners underwhelmed by the second Bozzio, Levin, Stevens offering should check out "The Idiot King" to hear how instrumental music can sound!

Idiot King album

Attention Deficit is another progressive supergroup that records for the Magna Carta label (i.e., Liquid Tension Experiment, Explorers Club, etc.). Comprised of new age bassist Michael Manring, ex-Primus drummer Tim Alexander, and ex-Testament guitarist (and one-time student of Joe Satriani) Alex Skolnick, Attention Deficit is more about atmospheric songwriting than technical shredding. For those who have lost track of Skolnick ...
