This year’s theme will be Battle of the Bands!!

Electric Mayhem new

You got that right, we’re going to pit all the fictional bands of movies, television, cartoons and etc. in a knock-down drag-out Katie-bar-the-door Pier Six Slobberknocker tournament to find out which band is the rockinest band of all motherfuddruckin’ time!!

CB4

edit: thanks to William Bruce West, we now have a full field of 64 bands ready. But give us your thoughts on who should stay or go!!

But we need your help. See, we have about 46 bands identified, but we could really use a field of 64 to get this going 64 bands identified. Check out the long list below and let us know in the comments or via any of our networks (including e-mail or the Cold Slither hotline!) which ones are missing or shouldn’t be on the list! We’ll announce the final field and the bracket predictions contest in just a few days, so let’s GO!!
