King Kong, a rock band from Louisville, Kentucky, formed in early 1989 by Ethan Buckler, the original bassist in the band Slint. The band's first single, "Movie Star", features the entire Slint line-up, sometimes swapping instruments.

King Kong's core line-up for many years was the trio of Buckler on guitar and vocals, Willie McClean (bass), and Ray Rizzo (drums). Over the course of its existence King Kong has been joined by Todd Hildreth (keys), Suki Anderson (additional vocals), Amy Greenwood (additional vocals), Andy Hurt (percussion), and Dave Pajo (drums). There are many others too numerous to list, e.g., Rich Schuler (drums), Brian Hubbard (bass).
