I'm just wondering why this band is so unknown? They are way better than many bands out there. Cool riffs, great melodies, IA's outstanding guitar playing, his lyrics, solos... just pure originality. But no, people prefer fucking Hammerfall, Sabaton and other shitty power metal bands. Not to mention great kings of shit - Lou Reed's current backing band.
@Xaederaz, ok, tell me about Tool. They're apparently the weirdest band I've ever heard. Their music is very hard to understand for common people. I think much harder than FK. But anyway they're incredible popular! You see, 85,942,261 plays and 1,373,234 listeners on LastFm! And Freak Kitchen 1,577,348 plays and 20,272 listeners. I can't explain it. Maybe it's just because Mattias doesn't like major labels and FK's not under VEVO or something like this. Don't know...
@DonPetrushka I have no idea really. I don't think I've heard one song from them. Got any advice about a good one from them? Regarding labels, I think Eklundh's signed under Favored Nations.. The one Vai runs. Not sure just how big it is really..
@Bellonization Forgot to add that alot of people see Mattias Eklundh as being a VERY strange person that use way too many harmonics in his playing, and use that point as a reason to keep away from Mattias Eklundh, as well as Freak Kitchen like the plague. How people could scorn Mattias for his harmonics, and instead praise Dimebag Darrel above the skies is above me.
@Bellonization, hey, FK is fucking genial band, you're right - pure originality! Great words! But you're wrong about Hammerfall and others. These bands play different music and they're interesting, too. Not so original as FK, but you shouldn't treat them like this.
In this song, they satirize the Chinese government's practice of using executed prisoners to provide western "transplant tourists" with fresh organs. If you think about it long and hard enough, it's pretty goddamn fucked up, especially since these folks who have been jailed and executed weren't even allowed anything in the way of a fair trial. The vast majority of them are political activists or otherwise totally innocent people. China treats its people like products, and we encourage them. Sad.
@reasintolive actually, it might blow some shit out of your head; you seem to confuse some things. The lyrics deal with an urgent and actual issue, in case some weeners did not get that.
@Bartolomeus9 OK you guys, I admit it. I didn't really get the lyrics. I just looked them up now. They are good. The kind of white supremacist, racially superior attitudes highlighted by the song are dreadful. It's true; society acts as if the lives of those people, Asians, or other non- whites. are less valuable than those of rich white people. The song makes a good point. I'm with you. You turned me around. It was a good debate. That's what comments are for .
@reasintolive Hey cool. Well-put. It's good to see some communication not breaking down on youtube comment pages :-). Even though I made my point quite harshly.
Hey Mattias, I´ve just read a great interview at the brazilian edition of "Guitar Player! You have an unique style, and the Caparison guitar is amazing!
Congratulations, you really are a gifted musician!
Does anyone know what his shirt says? It looks like Thai, but some of the letters look different to me (I lived in Thailand for two years, so can read a little Thai, but not well). Laos perhaps?
if it wasn't for yngwie malmsteen i wouldn't have been introduced to mattias eklundh and the freak kitchen. i mean it wasn't like yjm calling me and saying, " hey dude like u to meet someone, this is mattias..."in a party and stuff. 'guitary odyssey' yjm tribute album's last song 'yngwie2000' was by M'IA'E. i was blown away, never heard anything like it since symphony x. i bet alot of people don
t know mattias and the FK, all these years of my rock history and he still made me a child..
