He adopted his new name the following year.
He has recorded several EPs and his debut full-length album, 6 Feet Beneath the Moon, was released in 2013 to largely critical reception.
On October 13, 2017, he released The Ooz, his third album, which mixes elements of punk jazz with hip hop, darkwave, and trip hop.
Early life
Archy Marshall was born in Southwark, London, to Rachel Howard and Adam Marshall. He has relatives in the Czech Republic. Marshall said in an interview with The Guardian's Rob Fitzpatrick that he suffered with discipline problems from an early age and refused to attend classes. He divided his time in Peckham and his mother's house in East Dulwich throughout his childhood; his father was much more flexible than his father, who had many rules. Marshall recalls that his father had to physically carry him to school, otherwise he'd skip and hide in his room. He was given a private house tutor when he reached the age of 13. He was later accepted into the Royal Academy of Art, where he struggled with discipline at first, but soon found his home.
At London's Maudsley Hospital, Marshall has been screened for several health problems. He says the tests took a toll on him; that the doctors, counsellors, and psychiatrists were wrong most of the time; that he hated everybody; and that he'd stay in his room for hours on end. In some of his songs, he refers to his mental health conditions, such as depression and insomnia.
Marshall recalled that he created art in a number of media outlets throughout his childhood as his parents encouraged creativity early in his childhood. Visual art in particular is important to him, and he has detailed crafted his music videos and album art to reflect his particular aesthetic sensibility.
Personal life
Marshall is in a relationship with English photographer Charlotte Patmore. Patmore has been collaborating with him on photography and videography projects for many years, and he has been involved with several of his music videos, including the one for Patmore's song "Cadet Limbo." A video accompanying the debut of Marshall's album Man Alive! appeared in 2019 in Patmore's Hey World! They have one child, a daughter who was born in 2019.
Career
During Marshall's years at Forest Hill School and then at the Brit School alongside long-time collaborator Jamie Isaac between 2008 and 2011, he released two singles as "Zoo Kid". He created a genre of music called "Bluewave" and its form was realised in the mixtape entitled U.F.O.W.A.V.E. In July 2011, Marshall began playing under a new moniker, King Krule, at a festival in Hyères, France. Later that year he released his eponymous debut EP. Contrary to some reports, his stage name is not inspired by the character of King K. Rool from the Donkey Kong Country video game series, but rather by the Elvis Presley film King Creole.
On 9 December 2012, the BBC announced that he had been nominated for the Sound of 2013 poll.
King Krule released his debut album 6 Feet Beneath the Moon on 24 August 2013, his 19th birthday. More than half of the tracks had already been released on his EPs. This brought him to prominence, especially in the US, with performances on Conan and the Late Show with David Letterman.
On 8 January 2014, he released a video for "A Lizard State" which gained over 800,000 views on YouTube. In February 2014, King Krule appeared on the cover of The Fader in its 90th issue.
In December 2015, under the name Archy Marshall, he released an album titled A New Place 2 Drown, which includes 12 songs, a 208-page book of visual art and text and a ten-minute documentary. He partnered with his brother, Jack Marshall, on this project. In an interview with NPR, Marshall said that he wanted the album to have a physical component, as well as something for the eyes and the ears. He released the album under the name Archy Marshall rather than King Krule to differentiate between the two different genres of music, as he claims that he thought of A New Place 2 Drown as a hip hop album rather than the dark alternative/jazz sound of 6 Feet Beneath the Moon.
Marshall took to NTS Radio, hosted by Mount Kimbie, and released two songs under the name Edgar the Beatmaker. The first song is untitled, and the second is titled "When and Why". In August 2017, Marshall released a new song entitled "Czech One". This was a King Krule release, the first since the release of his debut album in 2013. In September 2017, Marshall released a new song entitled "Dum Surfer", released under the name King Krule. On 13 October, Marshall released his second full album The Ooz under King Krule. It included the singles released in the previous two months as well as 17 new songs. The album received positive reviews, and was ranked the #83 most discussed album of 2017 and the 75th most shared album of 2017 according to Metacritic. The album ranked 23 out of 100 on Official Chart Ranking and was ranked 8.7 out of 10 based on 56 ratings. Pitchfork named the album the best rock album of 2017 and the third best album overall of 2017. It was nominated for IMPALA's European Album of the Year Award.
On 8 March 2018 a live performance of songs from "The Ooz" was uploaded to the Molten Jets youtube channel, titled "King Krule - Live from the moon". This performance consisted of 8 different songs and was directed by Ja Humby.
