A very eclectic heavy rock sound with touches of Zappa-esque humor. Songs about the Devil's Balls, Knife Fights, Zombies, Jack The Ripper, Frankenstein-ish Ambulance Drivers, and more twisted fun.

Gargamel! slams together a high-volume mix of metal, funk, reggae, jazz and rap. They also toss in a healthy dose of humor that keeps them from being one of those deadly serious bands that are also deadly dull.

"Orlando's GARGAMEL! is a band every fan of heavy music should see -- an amazing combination of ability and dark buffoonery that singlehandedly obliterates every cynical, negative connotation of the term local band. If you haven't yet caught this schizoid metal spectacle's live show, by all means, flog yourself, then go get in the car. It's marvelous. They mix styles as easily as they mix technique, humor, and showmanship." - Scott Harrell, St Pete FL Weekly Planet.

"Gargamel! has their own vocal acrobat in the form of the maniacal Mandaddy. Imagine a zoo run by Frank Zappa with a monkey house built from Iron Maiden albums" - Conor Mitchell, Gainesville FL Sun.

The band has been the Orlando Weekly readers' top pick for "Best Metal Act" for 2003-2006 "Best of Orlando" editions. GARGAMEL! has shared the stage with such nationally known artists as GWAR, Anthrax, Dog Fashion Disco, Tub Ring, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Genitorturers, Mushroomhead, Nonpoint, Bad Acid Trip, Skindred, and Skeleton Key, to name a few.
