1 out of 5 stars Fun to listen to, but not good.......2004-05-02

Freak Kitchen has mastered every cliche of tasteless American guitar rock and added their own ridiculous Swedish twist. The solos are miles over the top and the lyrics are cartoonishly bad. I got my copy of this album for free, I think the price was just right. If you're intrigued by a Scandavian charicature of everything wrong with rock music in the States, download some songs but don't waste your money.

5 out of 5 stars So Goddamn Good.......2003-09-18

I wouldn't consider this a progressive album or even a progressive band, but the progressive elements are definetely present. Matthias is absolutely amazing at guitar and the lyrics he writes are extremely Zappa-esque in it's satire. This album can rock out but it also is extremely well done. Really good stuff. Get it for something new and you're sure to fall in love.

5 out of 5 stars 10 stars!!.......2003-06-26

Freak Kitchen is a breath of fresh air. Their music is so original. Not a single dead song on this one. Their music has hints of prog, metal, and a slight alternative feel. Basically, they smoke any alternative-new metal band out there because the music has the complexity of prog, the groove of rock, and the balls of metal! I plan on buying more of their stuff. I was very satisfied with Spanking Hour. Excellent songs would include "Walls of Stupidity", "Haw,haw,ha", "Dystopia", and "Spanking Hour". You'll never believe that this music is from Sweden!

5 out of 5 stars Yes, you too will be spanked!.......2000-07-17

I've been jaded at times about the state of intelligently done, progressive hard rock/metal these days, but this album re-affirmed my faith in what can be done without being too derivative or just plain boring. These guys really have it together - driving riffs, cool change-overs, and great lyrics. There's a real skill for songcraft here... at times I heard elements of Kim Mitchell (I think - maybe it's the singer!), Scatterbrain, Extreme (III sides...) and Tiles (who I also highly recommend). Too bad here in the U.S. we only the opportunity to buy Freak Kitchen CDs as imports!
