"We really put all we had into it, and more, and just never lost faith that it was going to advance us artistically and somehow vindicate the compromised success of the first album. And then it was like it never happened."

King James Version is the second studio album by American rock band Harvey Danger, released on September 12, 2000 through London-Sire Records. Following the success of the band's debut album Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? and its smash hit single "Flagpole Sitta", Harvey Danger returned home from touring in December 1998 and commenced work on what was to become their major label debut album. King James Version was first recorded between March and April 1999 with producer John Goodmanson at Bearsville Sound Studio in Woodstock, New York, with additional recording taking place at Bear Creek Studio in Woodinville, Washington and at John & Stu's Place in Seattle, Washington. Corporate restructurings involving Harvey Danger's record label, London Recordings USA, delayed the release of King James Version, which resulted in the band continuing to work on the album further until late February 2000, and following its completion the band signed to London-Sire, who agreed to release the album in July 2000. King James Version, while predominantly an indie rock and alternative rock album, encompasses a variety of rock music styles, and its ambitious direction stemmed from the band's fears of being dismissed as a one-hit wonder by critics, and their wishes to counteract that. The album's lyrics discuss "the conflict between faith and skepticism", and feature numerous allusions to popular culture, historical figures, places and literature. Although King James Version received generally favourable reviews from critics, who praised its ambitious musical direction and called it an improvement over the band's debut, it was a catastrophic commercial flop and only managed to shift 25,000 copies in the United States by 2005. Harvey Danger blamed London-Sire's poor promotion and distribution of King James Version as the reasons for its poor commercial performance, and its failure resulted in the band taking a three-year hiatus from 2001 to 2004. King James Version has continued to receive praise in the years following its release, and has retrospectively been described as an overlooked classic by several publications. King James Version is the last Harvey Danger album to feature drummer Evan Sult.
