Who’s The Better ‘Fake’ Band? [POLL] [VIDEO]

Dethklok was created by Brendon Small and Tommy Blacha and featured in the Adult Swim animated program Metalocalypse.The music heard on Metalocalypse is performed by Brendon Small, while other musicians are added as needed for live concerts and albums.

"Members" of the band were: Nathan Explosion, Skwisgaar Skwigelf, Pickles The Drummer, William Murderface, and Toki Wartooth.

Spinal Tap first appeared on a 1979 ABC TV sketch comedy pilot called The T.V. Show, starring Rob Reiner. Later the band became the fictional subject of the 1984 "mockumentary/rockumentary" film This Is Spinal Tap. The band members are portrayed by Michael McKean (David St. Hubbins), Christopher Guest (Nigel Tufnel) and Harry Shearer (Derek Smalls).

This Is Spinal Tap was accompanied by a soundtrack album of the same name. In the years following the film's release, the actors have portrayed the band members at concerts and released music under the Spinal Tap name.

A television reporter named Maggie Foley (Ellen Barkin) investigates the mysterious disappearance of legendary rock star Eddie Wilson (Michael Paré). Flashbacks dramatize Eddie's life and the rise and fall of his rock and roll band, Eddie and the Cruisers. In a surprise reveal near the ending, a bearded, much older looking Eddie is shown alive, watching the ending credits roll of a documentary tribute to him.

The movie was a critical and commercial flop, but the soundtrack, with music performed by John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band sold four million copies when “On the Dark Side” became a #1 hit.

Before there was Spinal Tap, there was the 1978 mockumentary All You Need Is Cash, which documented the careers of The Rutles, an obvious parody of the Beatles. The biography of the "Pre-fab Four" was based on a short comedy sketch for Eric Idle's sketch comedy series Rutland Weekend Television. The band was made up of Ron Nasty (Neil Innes), Dirk McQuickly (Eric Idle), Stig O’Hara (Rikki Fataar), Barry Wom (John Halsey).

A soundtrack album in 1978 was followed in 1996 by Archaeology, which spoofed the Beatles' Anthology series which had recently been released. A second film, The Rutles 2: Can't Buy Me Lunch was made in 2002 and released on DVD in 2003.

Aaron Spelling is one of the all-time genius TV show producers. You may not love all his programs, but in late August 1992, America fell in love with the Heights, a show about a fictitious teenage garage ban. But the love affair soon ended and the show was gone by late November, after airing only 13 episodes.

The theme song from the show, “How Do You Talk to An Angel”, hit #1 on the Billboard Top 40 chart in 1992. A "one-hit wonder" from a short lived tv series.
