The long awaited third album arrives at LAST! After work on the side project 'Evacuate Chicago' (which has a completely different, albeit no less awesome, feel) was finished and the band managed to fill out the group with a new bassist and guitarist, the Sandwich was ready to be born.

With all the humor we have come to expect and cherish from Psychostick, plus even more impressively catchy and auditorially pleasing riffs and beats that are strides beyond what every "heavy metal" band out there is doing - and the 'Stick does it not because popular media says they should but rather because it's fun, edgy, unique, and creative! In fact, almost any fan of rock or metal can get something out of this album. Though it's not for everyone, anyone that knows what great music is when they hear it, WILL like taking a bite out of this Sandwich!

I love these guys. This album is a work of genius. If you don't find this funny you're dead inside. DEAD I say!!! (This album does make you hungry... go figure!)

This album is probably the best humorous metal album I've ever heard. The lyrical theme surrounds the subject of food, with song titles like "The Hunger Within", "Orange", and the semi-title track, "This Is Not A Song, It's A Sandwich". There are other songs that shine more even than the food-related ones. "Caffeine" is hilariously hyperactive take on coffee and energy drinks, and sounds as if they'd had a few before they recorded the song. "#1 Radio $ingle" is a song that narrates itself with its own lyrics, but happens to be so catchy it probably could be played on the radio. There are funky crawling slap bass portions in "Shower" and "Girl Directions". The four short skits are pretty funny, and there are several bonus tracks after the main album is over with, including an epic older-song medley that replaces lyrics with names as a tribute to the 373 people who donated 50+ dollars for the album to be funded (I donated $50), an outtakes reel, and a very pretty, incredibly random acoustic song at the end that gets cut off prematurely by the apparent limitation in CD space. Overall a very good album, and it is worth many listens in its entirety, if you insert your tongue into your cheek for 75 minutes at a time.

This is a really funny cd. you should buy it new to support these guys. they need it. its 4 dollars lol come on. check out the other stuff too. but this album is a fave of mine. awesome music, awesome lyrics, and a pretty simple but cool album cover. worth every penny. buy it and play it at home. tell your friends too!! i love orange and shower on this cd. my fave out of them all. really heavy and love how they make fun of mainstream bands in #1 radio single lol.

The Hunger Within and Girl Directions are hillarious...and just like their other cds, not only are they funny, but they ROCK and the songs are great.

They sound like a bad garage band on this one. Poorly thought out (if at all), just a bunch of noise.

I randomly heard 'Orgasism Equals Love' on my XM Radio and I bought the original album. I loved it! Even saw them live when the came to my hometown. Sadly I was anticipating this album which fell way short. The hard in your face metal they offered has demenished into slapstick crap rock. I would sell it back if anyone would buy it, haha. ---Shipping time and package were amazing. Product came the way I expect any high qaulity product to come, fast and correct.---
