Medium Rare


This guy is Kengo Hioki. He is the singer and guitarist for "Japanese Action Comic Punk" Band Peelander-Z. To fans, he is more commonly known as his stage persona 'Peelander-Yellow'. On his facebook profile, he describes himself as "I'm Peelander-Yellow come from Z area of Peelander-Planet to eat your smile!!!!!". The group has a unique sound with songs such as STEAK and Mad Tiger. Peelander-Yellow, Red, and Blue are fans of wrestling and have two pro-wrestling title victories. It is safe to assume that Kengo eats his steak medium rare.

Scrillex (Frank)


Scrillex is the stage name of a popular techno artist, Sonny Moore. Before becoming the very popular artist he is today, he played in a several successful metal bands. He still works backstage for many metal bands, and also tours with huge artists like Datsik. Scrillex is one of my favorite artists personally because the music he makes is really, really good. The beats are a pleasure to listen to and the melodies range from sweet to dark. The album “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” is a demonstration of how awesome techno songs can be. The “OHMYGOD” transition is perfect for the song. When I first listened to this song I felt like my head was going to explode. This is not a bad thing for electronic music, sometimes I really define the genre by that trait.

Frank Feder

Frnak Feder is hella cool. This fam is so live. Frank is really in tune with music. He is really good at using music software to reveal his inner self and is always making hip-cool beats. However, Frank feels that having another side of his life is important. This is why he plays lacrosse, and he is the goalie. Not a moment goes by without Frank complaining about his lacrosse coach, although he may be justified there. "I'm hot because I'm fly; you ain't cause you not." Frank is so underground and cool, you can't even find him in Google images.
So, i had to hack into his computer and steal all of his gigabytes. Fortunately, he still had his megabytes.
Check out this Gamebreaker!

Frank actually makes music (sometimes). I am not simply making this up. Click here to listen to his music.
