wordsfromlee Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Growing up I loved a bit of Zack Attack from Saved By The Bell. I'm also partial to Barry Jive & The Uptown Five (formally known as Sonic Death Monkey, soon to be known as The Kathleen Turner Overdrive).

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 3, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 3, 2023 Sex-Bob-omb? They make me feel sad and think aboyut death and stuff. Also fond of The Shitz from Belgica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an example of the very worst trope, where the young characters of an existing show suddenly decide they're going to become a band, and it just so happens they can all sing decently and each learn an instrument in no time at all. Doesn't matter so much on an already silly show like Saved by the Bell, but insufferable in soaps or other dramas that want to be down with the kidz.

westlondonmist Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I'm not sure if Sexual Chocolate are the best or worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted August 3, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 3, 2023 Spinal Tap are the greatest. With The Beets, Sex Bob-omb, The Wonders and Orange Organics for me as a top 5. Mouse Rat were pretty shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 3, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) Didn't the Saved By The Bell kids have a band called The Five Aces as well? Also, it appears there's a fake bands wiki, because of course there is. https://fakebands.com/wiki/index.php?title=The_Five_Aces The Folksmen were pretty good as well.

Eat at oes is a line sung that was completely burned into my brain even though I’ve probably not watched A Mighty Wind in 15 years. Something about Harry Shearer's delivery.

Paid Members air_raid Posted August 4, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2023 Dr. Fünke's 100% Natural Good-Time Family Band Solution. “There’s no I in Teamocil, at least not where you’d think…” 🎵 Good wholesome stuff the whole family can enjoy. The real answer however is King Thunder from Quantum Leap. Many times over the last ten years have I wished Rock The Redhead was available on Spotify or more recently Apple Music. https://youtu.be/xHT2Ppt7B4Y May have been hummed daily by me during a previous crush on, umm, a redhead.

They played all their own music, released a few albums, toured and even had a signiture guitar. Bad News recorded some stuff recorded but they didn't tour, I'd possibly count them.

Mr_Danger Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 The Milli Vanilli of made up bands but a banger nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted August 4, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 4, 2023 Sing Street are the best. I genuinely love this song: In recent years, 4*Town from Turning Red are a great boyband pastiche; Lastly, it's not a band but Llewyn Davis is miles better than that hack Bob Dylan.

Same with The Commitments. But they started off fictional and became real, that does change them being fictional originally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
