King Charles

The opening track from YUNGBLUD’s self-titled EP gets its name from King Charles I of England, a monarch over England, Scotland and Ireland from 1625 until he was executed in 1649.

King Charles is often viewed as a tyrant due to his belief that he could govern according to his own conscience and no other sources. Many of his subjects disagreed with his policies, particularly his levying of taxes without consent from parliament.
