Press Reviews TOUCH MY FUN by Gargamel! is a declaration of war against the boring, cookie-cutter rock that's stinking up radio stations across the country. Who can deny the (sometimes) masked men their spine-tingling glory, digitally captured and served with a side of perpetual chaos. For the uninitiated, Gargamel's musical machete cuts a wide path through the outgrowths of industrial, metal, funk, rap, jazz and just plain weirdness. Packaged up, the band comes off so different that it requires the exclamation point. Understandably, the heady groove is hard to figure out at first, and there's always the shock of hearing Mandaddy's roller coaster vocals for the first time. But once you are in the club, it's like divine madness. - Mark Padgett - Orlando Weekly - October 2001
