The Banäna Deäthmüffins are back. Because you missed us.

That’s all right, LJ, you can’t help it. You LOVE Banäna Deäthmüffins!

(Sorry, thought I was Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist for a second there.)

Anyway, people often ask us where we get our song ideas from. In this case, it was from California Fitness Center, which posted a huge billboard ad on the side of a building with a very fit man and woman, and an alien. The slogan: “When they come, they’ll eat the fat ones first.”

Ha ha.

So here’s what I thought about that.



Sing along with BDM! )


As extra incentive for you to listen, we threw in some alien back-up singers at around the 2:45 mark. We call it the Added Entertainment Value.

Over 900 million served,

It’s been awhile since Banäna Deäthmüffins have made it into a studio. We did a little touring, but when we got to the states, the van was attacked by a buffalo who then sued us for damages, and that was the end of that tour.

Anyway, there’s some more traveling in our immediate future, and we know you can’t get enough BDM in yr diet.

So, by popular request, we stopped by the legendary Ultrallama Studios to write and record the best song ever about banoffee pie.

Earworm!



And the words go like this ... )


It is tasty, no?

For more Banäna Deäthmüffins goodness, go here.

That’s good pie,

The Banäna Deäthmüffins juggernaut is pretty much unstoppable at this point. We even tried taking a couple of weeks off. Look what happened: we went and recorded this blistering, savage diamond of a song that makes Helloween sound like Edison Lighthouse.

Also, it’s about irresponsible mobile phone usage by pedestrians.

Zeitgeisty!



Lyrics sheet is available [WARNING: Not FCC-friendly] )



FUN FACT:
Based on real life. I am forever dodging people staring at phone screens.

For previous Banäna Deäthmüffins releases, go here.

Everyone keep it on the download,

With three (3) chart-bothering singles under our belts, the Banäna Deäthmüffins plan for world domination continues.

And we’re proud to announce that we’ve picked up a key endorsement from [personal profile] bedsitter23 , the most influential tastemaker in Ankeny, Iowa, who gave us rave reviews and a gratuitous plug on his blog. And he hasn’t even heard any of our songs yet. If that’s not a sign that we’re doing something right, I’d like to know what is.

On the other hand, the BDM is missing one key component for The Big Time – a signature dance. So we sat down at the rooftop pub, put our heads together, and came up with one.

And we wrote it in about the time it’ll take you to listen to it. (around 1 minute 38 seconds, to be precise.)

It’s about seafood. Because how many seafood dances are there?

Well, around 24 of them, as it turns out. And we put them together in one song for you, so that makes 25.

Yr welcome.



How many seafood dances do YOU know? )


You can take yr pants back off now,

The Banäna Deäthmüffins plan for world domination is well on track, despite the lack of a major label deal, an American Idol appearance or any discernable talent.

So far the critics have compared us to Franz Ferdinand by way of Green Day, Butthole Surfers and Stan Freberg. We’re pretty sure that’s good.

Anyway, we’re now hoping to add The Bollocks Brothers to that list with our new chart-scraping single, “I Dreamed They Beheaded James Brown Last Night On Letterman”.

It’s a dance song.

Listen.



Lyrics sheet is available (contains spoilers) )


FUN FACT: Based on an actual dream I had ages ago. So you know it’s authentic!

Take it to the bridge,

I’m pleased to announce that the first single from my new band Banäna Deäthmüffins has been a runaway success, with approximately two (2) downloads in the last week, which is double our expectations.

So here’s our second hit song, which we think will be insanely popular with people who have had to sit through three straight days of PowerPoint presentations.

Which, as it happens, were the conditions under which this song was written.

Cos I get bored, yo.






Yadda yadda yadda,

It's Banäna Deäthmüffins.

As in my new band.

Debut single “My Puppy’s Going Psycho” now available on the Soundclouds.




Based on a true story, you know.

Lyrics sheet is available )


In theory, the widget should enable you to download the MP3, should you so desire. If not, you can download it from the Soundcloud page.

PRODUCTION NOTE: Recorded on a five-year-old laptop with that year’s version of GarageBand. So you may want to adjust yr equalizers accordingly for maximum fidelity. I’m not saying it will help. But it’s an option.

Either way, I hope it entertains you.

And if not ... well, you can't win 'em all.

It sounds crazy I know,
