Monkey on a Chain Gang [Expanded] (2004)

About this title: Instantly likable pop, strong vocals, and beautiful melodies made it a wonder this two-man band, House of Freaks, didn't explode during the late '80s. Drummer Johnny Hott's style has a military beat, appropriate to the band's historical, Southern bent. Singer Bryan Harvey is incredibly original and confident. Monkey on a Chain Gang still sounds completely fresh. [This expanded version of the album includes bonus material.] Denise Sullivan, All Music Guide
