Battle of the Bands

Good ole Satan here:

Has decided to start a one man band, cuz he can, he's Satan. He has powers. He decides to convert the coliseum into his own concert hall where he will welcome one band to try and stop his armageddon causing songs.

To up the stakes, while Satan plays he is able to summon an army of Clovie monsters to wreck shit up ala Scott Pilgrim/Final Fantasy summons. They will be summoned three at a time, so three fresh clovies will be spawned upon the death of all three..

That's some heavy shit, right?

Now to stop his ass:

Assemble a band that's composed of a bassist and/or guitarist, a singer and a drummer. Think outside the box when considering a drummer since there's only a handful I can think of. Keep in mind that the band must try to keep total destruction caused by the Clovies to a minimum, so they'll have help.

Once a band is assembled, choose a summon from any of these four to combat the Clovies:

Godzilla, Final Wars

Hulk/Norton

Hellboy in his super form w/big ass gun

Ghost in prototype Spartan armor

So, GO!!

-----My Picks-----

On Vocals:

Krauser III, Detroit Metal City

On Bass

Scott Pilgrim, Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World

On Guitar

Eugene Martone, Crossroads

On Drums

Garth Algar. Wayne's World

Summon: Hulk

----------

Eugene and Scott will be able to contend with Satan's licks and solos easily I would think, thanks to the experience Eugene has from goin' up against Steve Vai/Satan's little helper dooder. Garth's drumming would counter Satan's crazy ass drum solo. Krauser stood up to Jack Ill Dark/Gene Simmons, so he can handle Satan's lowly ass.

The meantime, Hulk's regeneration will be able to hold off Clovies, I think. If anything, he may tire, and that's the only way he could go down, though I'm leaning for an easy 8/10 that they achieve victory.

Holy crap. This is like...the coolest versus match in MVF thread history.

I don't even know where to begin.

Who is your summon? Your bandmember choices are pretty boss, though that city is gonna get f*cked up unless someone says nay.

Im going with Hellboy.... 🙂

Yes...DDMs right this is a very good thread, Scythe..

Thanks guys.

I too am on the boat that Hellboy can stand his own against three clovies. he shot the shit out of that big ass octomom thingy in the Golden Army. I was hopin' I couldn't make it too much of an overkill on either side.

AHH SCYTHE!! Why can't we use more than your typical band make-up. Key boards, sax, ect ect ):

He allowed use of Del Preston, so maybe Kaos pad operators etc might not be amiss.

Up to three more bandmembers will be allowed who are able to play different instruments, they'll nee to counter Satan's violin playaing skills. They're facing a Devil Went Down to Georgia style solo battle.

Vocals:
Everett - O brother where art thou

Guitar:
Johnny Cash - Walk The Line

Bass:
Todd Ingram - Scott Pilgrim vs. the world
YouTube video

Drummer:
Dale Doback - Step Brothers
YouTube video

Summon would have to be Godzilla, he's got the most destructive force behind him other than probably Hellboy, but he has a limited amount of ammo and can't take as much of a hit.
I wanted to put Brennan Hugg on vocals, but I figured I should switch it up a bit and not have two step brothers characters 😬

Vocals: King Diamond Fo Sho.
(The man may be Satanist, but he can kill anyone octaves with ease.)
Bass: Death (Bill and Ted's)
Guitar: DimeBag Darryl.
Drums: Mike Portnoy
(Makes Satan's Drum solo look like he was playing with pots and pans.)
PSSSHH. (Makes Satan's drumset look like pots and pans.)
😄

And Summon: Hellboy Fo Sho.

BTW, Scythe great thread idea.

I take it back. I want Metallica's old Bassist as my bassist.

I'd go with Godzilla.

I'll have to ponder my progrock and new-age steampunk band a while longer.

Right now I have:
Craig Chaquico on Guitar
Carlos Santana on Guitar
Neil Pert Drumming
John Linnell on Stylophone
David Malki ! on steam trombone
I just can't figure out who should be on oboe, pipe organ, the 3 stand up bases, or where anyone from YES fits in.
choices, choices

Excellent choices.

Also, I forgot how hilarious Step Brothers was. I need to watch that movie, again.

"I HAVE TRAVELED 500 MILES TO GIVE YOU MY SEED!" And he is pitching a tent the whole time! lmao!

Great choices so far, peeps. Remember, these musicians must have appeared in a film, though I'm sure most of them have. I'm surprised no one has picked the Blues Brothers, or anyone from Spinal Tap.

Thankies.

Yeah Im slapping myself for that heinous lack of BB/Spinal Tap on my part..

That fail went to 11. 😛

Well, taking the BB for example, they're on a mission from god, they can auto-trump anything Satan dishes out, so they may be out of the question. I would think, since it's an auto-win on their end.

Well this may be true indeed.

But damn it would SOUND good. lol
