Gathering of Freaks is the second album from the Heavy Metal band Freak of Nature, fronted by former White Lion lead singer Mike Tramp. The album was released in 1994 and spent one week at #66 on the UK Albums Chart in October 1994. It was the band's only UK chart presence.[2] The album was recorded in Canoga Park, California, and North Hollywood, California. Following the release of the album guitarist Kenny Korade was replaced by Marcus Nand and the band undertook another tour in support of the album.[3] All songs were written by the band with lyrics provided by Mike Tramp. Sea of Tranquility reviewer Murat Batmaz gave the album a glowing review, calling it perhaps Mike Tramp's greatest vocal performance with his darkest songwriting vision.[4]

The promo single "Enemy" featured a music video.
