I know I shouldn't, but I hit Play on that Rompeprop. I guess they're serious, but those pitch-shifted vocals turned the bullfrog out by the pool green with envy. Well, come to think of it I guess he was green to begin with, but he got greener. All I can say is if I was to do a send-up of death metal, it would sound a lot like this. Maybe you can't parody Death Metal by taking it to the extreme. Maybe all you get is better Death Metal.
Edited to add: It must take some practice to sing live and hear the output pitch-shifted. I've tried it and it's distracting/confusing as hell (not as bad as delay, though). Maybe he sings with earphones feeding him unshifted audio.
They're from the PG Porn series by James Gunn (Slither, Scooby Doo, Dawn of the Dead).
The short films are here and feature (among others), Nathan Fillian and Alan Tudyk (both from Firefly), as well as the Office's Craig Robinson and the Gilmore Girls' Sean Gunn. They're actually rather humorous.
"In the commentary for the 2002 film, 24 Hour Party People, Tony Wilson of Factory Records stated that while he liked Crispy Ambulance, he felt that their name was the worst band name of all time."
Not a band name - come to think of it, not childish mockery either - but I think this is actually a pretty cool way of coming up with an album name. Kind of a shame they cheated on the artist name. They could have been called Turglot Laak, which is much more original and google-friendly than damn robot. The album is called Hunang Skrimsli:
Oh boy, that's gonna be one of those things that's gonna draw a chuckle for me at the absolutely wrong time.
I'm gonna be with the family, see some tv ad for an overpriced item, and then mumble just a little too loudly, "Sexfist", then after the uncomfortable silence has hung there for an uncomfortably long time, begin chuckling to myself.
Sigh.
This won't reach the level of "monies" (which just got me to laughing as I type this), but it's gonna come close.
Sexfist.
Yep, now I'm laughing at that, too.
Oh lord, it's like I'm developing my own personal socially unacceptable hilarious lexicon.
Now I know what to get for my wife this year: A copy of The Toilet Bowl Cleaners performing "Happy Valentine's Day (I'll Hold Your Hair Back When You Puke)." If that doesn't say "love," I don't know what does. Or maybe it will say "celibacy."

"Pikzwarteflikkerkak" sounds very dirty to my sensitive Danish ears. ;-)
- with tracks like: Pissferatu, Pissturbed and Squirt Tolerance .
- Kids nowadays !
It's apparently a soundtrack.

I guess Matriculated to Revolt didn't have quite the ring they were looking for.
They even go so far as to have the album art match the stupidity of their name/album title.

Sadly that's more clever than their first album. I mean, Bleeding Profusely is just half-assed.
- Hmmm ?
I've long been amused by this band name, especially in conjunction with one of their song titles.
(The links are for evidence. The song is Optimum Creakage by Green Nuns Of The Revolution. They have another song called Green Nunions.)

- BC.
"Oh, that's nice, dear. What's the band's name?"
Besides, I'm less offended by the band name than I am the insinuation that four bucks for a Sierra Nevada is some sort of deal worth advertising.

This band has several other releases on emusic with less (yes, less) mature titles.
Ram It Up Your Poop Shoot !
