Jeez!! True temperament frets! That sound got smooth as a babysass-apricot-hybrid!

@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..

[DonPetrushka]

@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]

@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.

What a freakin´Band! God save F K

[Xaederaz]

@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.

[Xaederaz]

@Bellonization Mostly because bands like Freak Kitchen are concidered to be a bit too "weird" for some strange reason...

This video is a favorite on Stockholm

[Bellonization]

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.

OMG this is just perfect

[dzsimihendriksz]

Fuck!That solo is too damn good and hard to play:))
