Kingsfoil gets 5 out of 5 stars on new album by By Jamin Cousins, Rawkzilla.com
Hailing from York, Pennsylvania, Kingsfoil’s latest self-titled release is a breath of fresh air musically. One can hear Kingsfoil’s influences, but they are mere sonic silhouettes in the backdrop of their shining originality... While certainly driven by melodies, it’s easy to tell that their song-writing is synergistic as it’s interesting and exciting on multiple levels: melodically, rhythmically, instrumentally and structurally... ...In summary, this is the kind of music that moves you. It is catchy, but creative. It is raw, but profound. It’s progressive, but accessible. Every single song will leave you humming it’s melodies and reflecting on it’s themes.

On Our Own Together Album Review by By Kate Weiking of The Album Project
If there’s a formula for writing great radio-friendly alternative rock music, Kingsfoil seems to have found it. The songs on their album ‘On Our Own Together’ range from catchy to melancholy, but their 14-song album carries itself with swagger and commands attention with every note. These tunes go down smooth and have mainstream rock appeal, but also manage to keep an alternative feel. The album rides mainly on the strength of the songwriting and on the band’s greatest asset: Jordan Davis’ vocals. They aren’t exactly unique, but many of the album’s highlights come when he experiments with his vocals—when he plays with the words as they roll off his tongue and flips into falsetto. This is never clearer than on the album’s showstopper “Demons” when Davis launches into fast-paced falsetto. While Davis’ vocals are the focal point, the only paint the canvasses of the band’s melodies. “Dust of Our Cities” has many juxtaposed fast-paced and prolonged melodies that create an excellent multi-textured song. Most of the songs toe the line within the mellow alternative rock box like “Give It Up Now” and “Love Is a Carnival Goldfish” which sound like they could be at home on any radio station that favors One Republic and The Fray. While still managing to sound like Kingsfoil, the songwriting grows more sultry and thoughtful on the raw “Keeps Me Breathing.” At other points, Davis channels John Mayer on “Summer Comes.” Low points on the album—few as they are—include the rather disappointing title-track “On Our Own Together” that starts off with one of the album’s catchiest licks but soon fades into a boring song. Other songs like the closing track “If You Love Something You Push it Away” are just confusing in their failure to adhere to the band’s style. Overall, however, ‘On Our Own Together’ finds the band gaining confidence, identity, and putting down a record full of memorable and undeniably catchy songs.

Kingsfoil Stands Out During MMC At the Radisson by Noelle Barrett, Harrisburg Patriot News Feb 2010
Kingsfoil took the crown in my eyes. I fell in love with this band at last year’s Millenium Music Conference and they impressed me all over again. I keep trying to figure out who they remind me of and I really can’t. Kingsfoil is Kingsfoil, and they are amazing. The crowd mouthed the words to older songs like, “Trees” and “Love is a Carnival (Goldfish)," while the band threw in some new numbers. A favorite for me off the new album is “Demons.” The quartet has an indie sound that ranges from mellow to pop to rock. Not only do I love Kingsfoil’s sound, but the lyrics floor me every time I hear them. The talent of these four guys cannot be ignored, and I only see awesome things for them in the future. You will become addicted."
