Why say “atomic half life” when you could say “shrinkflation”?

A biting satire of all novelty records called “It Was The Monsters’ Thanksgiving”.

A retro video-game chip-tune band called “Gex ‘N’ Effects”.

A metal singer in one band started gigging with a second group. “Don’t worry about SPEAR OF LONGINUS,” he told the first group, “that’s just a side project.”
