Welcome back Maxwell Jeffries, the mad professor of metal, point proven by recently released single ‘King Under The Mountain’, another monstrous track to an already released arsenal of music.
It’s the second single from Underking’s next upcoming 2025 release.
The single is definitely one for the headbangers as it riffs, rages and roars for four chest beating minutes. Earworm time changes thud and resonate to keep your concentration levels on full, so as not to miss anything, point proven by a rib rattling drum assault and call to arms lyrics for added venom. Job done!

Inspired by fantasy, sci-fi, and the heavy metal greats, Underking delivers an epic blend of emotive rock and high-octane traditional metal. This “New Wave of Classic Rock” feels familiar yet unexplored – a hook-heavy, riff-centric conglomerate of Judas Priest, Ghost, Foo Fighters, and Megadeth-style thrash. The tight musicianship sits comfortably in the midst of a deliberately nerdy backdrop, with narrative influences including: Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Avatar: The Last Airbender and beyond. Underking comprises of Maxwell Jeffries, Elliot Burgess, Michael Farmer, Harvey Magher and Kieron Pyne-Rolander.
