Bands that don't take themselves seriously

[johnsom]

Add a band you like that does funny songs.

 

[CpnBeef]

I'll go for what i think is probably the most obvious one: Tenacious D

 

[SoopaSte123]

Barenaked Ladies. If I Had A Million Dollars is funny and you can just tell they're having a fun time doing it.

I'll go for what i think is probably the most obvious one: Tenacious D

Tribute one of my favorites.

 

[johnsom]

I'll add Blood hound gang I remember getting ready for school while listening to nothing but mammals on mtv.

 

[Macheteswordgun]

Austrian Death Machine its all about the Govornator

[johnsom]

There are probably ton's of 90's faux punky bands that fit the bill.

I'd like to nominate 'The outline' though.


Seriously. No one's ever heard of them. They're great. And are willing to laugh at themselves a bit.

Any particular song that stands out?

 

[zehydra]

Nirvana. They didn't really write funny songs, but they never took themselves seriously.

 

[Capt. Crankypants]

Flight of the Conchords. I think I win this one.

EDIT: examples

Spoiler

 

[NeutralDrow]

Psychostick, of course.

 

[johnsom]

Flight of the Conchords. I think I win this one.

Flight of the Conchords. I think I win this one.

sir you win purely because your avatar looks like andre from the league.

 

[Sir Thomas Sean Connery]

It cannot be said too many times.

And just remember one thing: Fuck her gently.

 

[Miumaru]

Nirvana. They didn't really write funny songs, but they never took themselves seriously.

Actually, I think they took it extremely seriously. Cobain anyways.

 

[Offworlder_v1legacy]

Dethklok. They even have their own show.

Snip

And just remember one thing: Fuck her gently.

Truer words were never spoken. Now thats fucking teamwork!

I had to register just to say how disappointed I am that Weird Al was not specifically mentioned within the first three posts.

Spoiler: Don't download this song.

The song's slightly dated, so you'll have to forgive some of the terminology.
