5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent debut, April 1, 2000

I heard about this band because they were on Ozzfest a couple of years ago and Ozzfest is known for bringing great unkown metal bands to the forefront. Ultraspank is no exception as this is one of my favorite cds. Their music has a kind of Toolesque sound incorporated with some techno/ industrial flavor and leans more toward the dark side. Though heavy, it's not groove-oriented like Korn or Pantera, but is more laid-back say like Staind. The vocalist possesses great range from singing to screaming and has a kind of Toolesque singing style going. The backing vocals also add some depth. Standout tracks include "Sponge", "Wrapped", "5", and "Butter". Despite the references to Tool, Ultraspank has their own unique sound, which is hard to describe, yet is original and definitely worth checking out. Static-X, Spineshank, and Rammstein are also great bands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love or Hate? Worship!, June 20, 2003

I've read through some reviews and it looks like you either love Ultraspank or hate them. I don't see how any metalist could hate Ultraspank.

(For the guy saying they want to sound like Tool)??What! Tool and Ultraspank have very different sounds. Took uses a bit softer lyrics and instruments. Both bands use different topics and the like.

Anyways, This band is the God of "Heavy Metal." I say Heavy Metal because it's not Nu or Industrial. This music is pure Heavy Metal.

Ultraspank has a way of putting you in a trance. This is some of the best guitar working I've ever heard and a beat you can just sink into.

Only a few bands have really impressed me with vocals like this. At one moment your hearing soft welcoming sounds, feeling a bit secure in their way. Then you are blasted away by some major power vocals.

This band is so hard to put to words. It's best to discover this awesome band for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars SWEET!, November 4, 1999

I first heard the song called "5" on the Playstation game "3xtreme" and I thought the song was awesome, I like Limp Bizkit and KoRn, but I thought this maybe a little to hard for my tastes, but boy was I wrong! It has turned out to be one of the best CD's I have ever bought. The best songs are "5", "Butter", "Suck", "Fired", and "Sponge". THIS CD RULES, GO BUY IT!
