Hamburg, Germany (1987 – present)

German Hard rock band Kingdom Come, formed in 1987 by vocalist Lenny Wolf in Hamburg, Germany. After the release of their first single ‘Get It On’ fans mistakenly regarded the band as a Led Zeppelin reunion. Although the bands had a great deal in common Lenny Wolf pursued his own vision of hard rock.

(Not to be confused with 60’s band Arthur Brown’s Kingdom Come. If you are here because of them, please Fix Your Artist Tags.)

Kingdom Come is a melodic hard rock band fronted by Hamburg-born vocalist Lenny Wolf. The group’s first album, Kingdom Come became quite popular and is remarkable for its classic hard rock sound, reminding listeners of such bands as Led Zeppelin and Scorpions, the latter of which former Kingdom Come drummer James Kottak is now a member of.

The group was formed after the breakup of Wolf’s moderately successful rock project Stone Fury. Wolf’s new record company, Polygram, allowed him incredible freedom to assemble Kingdom Come’s lineup and direct its sound, recruiting Pittsburgh-based lead guitarist Danny Stag, Louisvillians Rick Steier (guitar) and James Kottak (drums) and Northern Californian Johnny B. Frank on bass. Kingdom Come marked the first band where Wolf sang without playing guitar. (The frontman later admitted that, for a while, it was a very awkward adjustment.)

Kingdom Come’s sound was thought by many to be highly derivative of Led Zeppelin’s, to the point that some listeners initially thought that Kingdom Come was actually a Led Zeppelin reunion.[1] In 1988, Lenny & company released their debut LP, Kingdom Come.
