"Of course if yer checking this out, most likely you are a CKY fan. this is deron and jess's band pre CKY, and the style is much more basic production wise. this CD is not only a good addition to any CKY fans collection, but also a near excellent document of technical proficency of instrumentation, a great sense of arrangement, and ... effin' heavy. both deron and jess play flawlessly, and almost make the bludgening, yet transcendant riffs sound effortless. you could say this is more of a proggresive death or speed metal album, except for the fact that the songs are put together so well that they seem to almost intentionally invert the listener, and turn him/her on their [bottom]. the only thing that makes this album less then perfect are the slightly less then stellar production, and the fact that it leaves you wanting to hear more songs in the same vein. i highly recommend this disc if your into death metal, or old school metallica/slayer. this may be the only time yer gonna get to here deron solo!"
A must have

"This CD is amazing. It's quite possibly my favorite pre-cky material. A must have for any cky fan out there. The drums and guitars are exquisite. The vocals are harder than many of the cky songs but the cky sound is definitely recognized. I am very pleased with this cd."
Foreign Objects' Glory Days

"Foreign Objects is a pre-CKY band consisting of Deron Miller and Jess Margera. This album is much different than anything CKY has done but it still has a hint of the CKY sound to it considering it is 50% of CKY. Foreign Objects has fast paced and technical guitar riffs, killer drums, and hard hitting vocals. The album only has 5 songs but they are recorded well for where they were recorded and the songs flow well together. It is a great album to own and was just a hint as to what Jess and Deron were capable of. They went on to make incredible album's with CKY but nothing like their days in Foreign Objects. The Re-release of this album will also be out in early 2004 with 10 original songs for all those who think this one is too short. Look forward to the re-release but I suggest buying the original if you can find it. It is one of my favorite cds that I own and highly recommend it to any music fan."
