Peelander-Z is a Japanese band currently in New York. The Band consists of three members: Peelander Yellow, the guitarist and lead singer, Peelander Red, the bassist, and Peelander Green, the drummer, who replaced Peelander Blue. There is also a Peelander Pink that helps out on stage sometimes. Peelander-Z is a "Japanese super-action comic band." They seem to make fun of a Japanese style of music known as Visual Kei which consists of bands that are mainly men that mainly dress up as girls and 80's hair bands.

From last.fm:
Songs about snakes from Danny and Annie of The Soviettes. Danny plays the drums, Annie plays the bass guitar and the duo shares singing duties. Instrumentally, the band plays a garage-flavored high tempo rock that borders on lo-fi dance punk. Released in 2006, their debut album, Venom runs like one long musical gag to insert the words "Awesome," "Snakes" and "Jerk" as much as possible. This is all, of course, done deliberately with self-aware, winking stupidity. The album also features an appearance from P.O.S., member of Minneapolis hip-hop collective, Doomtree.
