As the tombstone shows, we’re not scheduled to pass away until 2052. So, if no post is added for some period of time, we’ve been struck down as a direct consequence of our inability to resist the music of To Kill a King. “The Problem of Evil” is built around a preacher questioning his Lord regarding the presence of evil in the world.
To Kill a King has always had a dark side, so this song shouldn’t be a surprise. At one time, we compared the band to the main character in the television series “Dexter.” Dexter is an extremely likable guy who is effective in taking mass murderers out of circulation – he kills them. Similarly, the music of To Kill a King is extremely likable, but it arrives in a vehicle that should be more troubling than we allow it to be.
To Kill a King is based in London and is comprised of Ralph Pelleymounter (vocals, guitar), James Ball (bass), Ben Jackson (synth, keys), Grant McNeill (guitar), and Josh Taffel (drums).

Lyrics of “The Problem of Evil” by To Kill a King
Preacher said, “Fuck you God”
I'm coming for you
It's just one of those days when
You didn't come through
The warrior preaches love
Blessings, they're for all
This coffins way too small
Let me know [Repeat 5x]
Your plans, so men could understand the things you don't do
The preacher took off his coat
Dragged a dark collar from his throat,
Wrung his hands in despair,
Sparked his cigarette and smoked
Breathing fire, spitting fumes
On every word he choked
If upon this beach we walked
And you carried me when I was lost
And oh Lord let me be
'Cause I'm struggling to see
The plan in your majesty
Let me know [Repeat 5x]
Your plans, so men could understand the things you don't do
For doubt has grown in me
For doubt has grown in me
