Amazon.com When the Presidents of the United States of America disbanded in January 1998, it seemed like a logical move. After songs about peaches, fussy kittens, and Speed Racer, what can a band do? Frontman Chris Ballew bashed out more pop under the tag of an imaginary band of stuffed animals, the Giraffes, but it never caught on. Now the newly reformed Presidents are back for a new term on Freaked Out and Small, and the state of the union is excellent indeed. While the band's studio swansong, II, was a lackluster offer, Freaked Out is a punchy, assured collection of tongue-in-cheek rock songs. The opening one-two punch of "Tiny Explosions" and "Nuthin But Luv" sets the hyper tone, leading into whacked-out, sugar-coated salutes to the planet Jupiter, jazz musicians, broken hearts, Star Wars, and ticking human time bombs. A laugh-out-loud, toe-tapping winner. --Jason Josephes Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThere back P. J. Fairbanks | Newburgh NY | 09/14/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "Freaked out and small is PUSA's best record to date. Any old fans of the band should buy this record. They haven't lost a step in there three year abscence" No impeachment for these Presidents! Eric P. Rodawig | South Dakota | 01/14/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "Instead of having lofty social goals like REM or U2, the Presidents just want everyone to have fun, and their music shows it!In my opinion, they are the best band of the 90's. They have great rock songs, and they're alternative enough to be different while not alienating anyone by being too weird.This CD, their best one, has a lot more peppy rock songs then the others, and it's hard to listen to it without the volume all the way up. They have some good slow songs, too, like Tiger Bomb, which is perhaps their second best song (under Peaches, of course)Even if you haven't heard of the band, this is a fantastic CD, and one that anyone looking for some feel-good, high energy rock will absolutely love." THEEEEEEY ARE BACK! Eric P. Rodawig | 09/30/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "all i can say is yes yes yes and yes. i was so sad when i heard those guys were breaking up...and now there back...and they didnt miss one beat getting here...the album has the same style as the others...the style we love...so if you liked lump...if you sang (to your own morale's decline) we're not gonna make it...ORDER THIS CD NOW! we're not gonna make it...LOL...these guys are back and better than ever...and if you havent heard them...buy this one and all the others.Mahallo"
