More "bands as people"

[qcjeph]

Because I could do these forever, more bands personified as people (this time largely taken out of my own iTunes library):

I would love to know what Mindless Self Indulgence would be!

[billazilla]

JEPH! ARCHIVE ALL THIS SHIT SOMEWHERE! PEOPLE WILL THANK YOU FOR IT LATER, AND IT WILL COME IN HANDY WHEN YOU PUBLISH YOUR BOOK.

inb4 yelling bird reference.

I suppose I'll bite, too.

Ilkae is the asian guy who runs the corner grocery store who always says something to you when you buy groceries, but you can't understand a goddamn word and he goddamn knows it.

Air King Sound will have sex with you whenever she's in town, but when you try to cuddle or talk with her, she puts a hex nut or a gumball or a pencil or a dead beetle in your hand and reverently closes your fingers over it, and gazes into your eyes with heartfelt meaning.

Yello is the child molester guy downstairs who was acquitted on lack of evidence. This troubles you because you really feel like you're supposed to like him, but

[stocktaking]

Part Chimp is that nerd who decided he was tired of getting picked on so he developed a ridiculously massive upper body but is still very much a nerd

Man, it would be awesome if Jeph started making cartoon versions of the best of these band personifications.

Or maybe he already did?

Marten is the Dead Milkmen
Faye is Hogscraper
Dora is Chrome Hoof
Hanners is Daft Punk disguised as The Books touring with Dan Deacon
Steve is Danko Jones
Pintsize is GWAR fronted by Bootsy Collins
Winslow is Sondre Lerche
Penelope is Bell Orchestre
Tai is any rave music that doesn't suck
Wil is MC Frontalot if he had never heard of hiphop
Sven is Pulp
Angus is the Decemberists if they would just sit the fuck down and drink some beer already

[stocktaking]

Shit, I forgot Raven, but Jeph has been forgetting her as well I guess

Raven is the Donnas

[detaails]

i can't explain how much i love the fact that pintsize is gwar.

[morde]

lol The Bjork one is so true.

The Arcade Fire is the guy you were best friends with before he knew anybody in town, but now that he's super-popular he doesn't even return your phone calls.

This is very, very true. As much as I love them, I have to admit this.
