Double post.

This thread should be stickied for three reasons:
1. It is comedy GOLD.
2. It is comedy GOLD.
3. We just about wrote 10-15 strips for Jeph already, and it would probably be polite to make this easy for him to reference in the future when he's short on ideas.
Anyways, back on subject.
Anyone heard of Byzanterror? Christian Death Metal, for what it's worth. Their self-titled debut was seriously lacking musically and lyrically (growling the Psalms sounds good on paper but just doesn't work in practice), and while their sophomore attempt, "Cruci-Fiction" supposedly synchs up perfectly with the first 70 minutes of Mel Gibson's "Passion of the Christ," it's certainly no Dark Side of the Moon/Wizard of Oz by any means. So don't expect me to hold my breath for their newest release, "Jesus Don't Want Me For A Nightmare."
On the other hand, Khar might love the shit out of them. I'm not sure.

The Unbelievable Apocalypse--a Japanese foursome that dresses in suits and ties and have changed all of their names legally to James Bond. While completely aloof and unaware of their ridiculousness, they caused quite a cult following in Eastern Europe, which spawned a cult following in the American indie scene, obviously. They play music inspired by the scores of Bond movies and noir movies and their songs are written by a computer. All of their girlfriends have had their last names legally changed to "Bondgirl."

Reginald and the Putrid Scum
Punk band from the golden summer of '77. Mildy famous/notorious for a rather superbly offensive song about coprophilia. They got their big break supporting the Stranglers at the Roundhouse, except they made the mistake of drinking nine crates of cheap Belgian lager before hand, and had to cut their set short when the bassist vomited on his amp, causing it to catch fire. They split up shortly afterward. 'Reginald' (real name Marmaduke), by far the only member of the band with any talent whatsoever, went on to front the first wave goth band 'Martian Sodomy Biscuits', but they split up in '86 over an argument about whether to spend their band funds on a new hi-hat or hair spray. Reginald then formed a solo industrial project called 'Unimpeded Melanoma of the Birkenhau Death-Foetus', which changed into an apocalyptic folk/folk noir project called 'Nuclear Autumn' approximately 17 minutes later, when he realised he didn't own any synths, a drum machine, a mixer deck or a multi-track tape machine. He went on to achieve some underground success, but became depressed about accusations that he harboured extreme right wing sympathies (founded on his acoustic cover of The Cure's 'Killing an Arab', and his rather unfortunate (drunken) decision to use a swastika as the bands logo, thinking it would be ironic.) He attempted suicide in '95 by getting wasted on absinthe and taking upwards of fifty barbiturate tabs. Unfortunately, he accidentally took fifty tabs of his flat-mates cheap acid instead. Medical experts agree he will probably come down some time in 2015.

Speaking of Martian Sodomy Biscuits, there's an excellent ska-metal cover of their song "Tea Set Made Of Ballerina Bones" by 23-peice New Zealand satano-ska band Anti-Anti-Anti-Chirst.
