I just can't pull myself away...I just can't pull myself away.

This is easily the silliest recording I've heard in the last twelve minutes or so. These guys sound like a bunch of Scottish pirates from Hull ina Ska/Metal/Funk band.
If this is a joke, then I am impressed beyond words. This is way over the top and utterly hilarious and gets sillier with every listen.

The best thing about this CD is that while it is indeed, very silly, the musicianship is tighter than a kindergardners v****a, and like an oddly deformed circus freak with leprosy, I just can't pull myself away.
This is my new favorite band.

Metronome - March 2006
Cannibal Kings
Iron Man
3 Song Maxi Single/Mini EP/Sampler
1. Iron Man - 3:27 (F. Iommi, J Osborne, T. Butler - Essex Music International)(Limited Edition/Authorized by Harry Fox Agency)
2. Dirty Ernie - 2:47 (V. Mason - Sonic Serenade Music BMI)
3. Funky Houston - 4:51 (V . Mason, J. DeAscentis, R. Shanley - Sonic Serenade Music BMI)
The Cannibal Kings open their 3 song sampler with a well produced and played version of the Black Sabbath classic "Iron Man". The Cannibal Kings are loud and tight and pick up the energy level a few degrees on the Sabbath original. The enthusiam doesn't stop there though. Their originals Dirty Ernie and Funky Houston fare just as well with funky drum heavy grooves, searing fret board work and ass kicking vocals. After checking out this sample I am surt the Cannibal Kings would be a rowdy live act worth checking out.
