Royal Lunch

Royal Lunch is the ninth studio album by avant-garde band King Missile, released on September 21, 2004, by Important Records.

Alex Henderson of AllMusic commends the band's esoteric compositions while saying "Hall comes up with so many nutty, irreverently absurd references that he becomes disarming" and "even when Hall is telling listeners how much he despises Attorney General John Ashcroft and Vice President Dick Cheney, he comes across as more of an eccentric than an agitator.

"[1] Ink 19 called the album "a worthy collection with some college radio airplay potential" and "thought-provoking and interesting, although it does tend to rely on profanity, especially on the mercifully short "Pain Series VIII: Stubbed Toe.

Because the rest of the world is America’s bitch") allude to old punk, but never get quite as interesting.

"[3] All lyrics are written by John S. Hall; all music is composed by Sasha Forte, John S. Hall, and Bradford ReedAdapted from The Psychopathology of Everyday Life liner notes.
