Genius!

If you like that - Have a look on youtube for Victor Borger

Thanks for the suggestion of Borge; he is really funny! in their beginning they started out mocking just classical music. They even had this fictional composer: Johann Sebastian Mastropiero that, according to them "Because of economical troubles, Mastropiero falls in the need to compose music by charge making mediocre and unimaginative works. While, on the other hand, when he followed his inspiration he never wrote a note" but they slowly started to include another musical genres that range from Russian ballads passing through music for a documentary music to a rap!!!

They used to make their instruments, also. In the video you can check out the Latin (a mix of a Violin with a large tuna can)

They have 40 years of career! I wonder if there is another band that old and still only having its original members (someone check the Guiness book, please!) personally their magna opus is either La Comisión (Himnovaciones) about a mambo composer in charge of rewriting the national anthem for political reasons and Cardoso en Gulevandia, a bilingual opera in Spanish and in the fictional language of Gulevache. Another quote from them: "Because, unlike those operas in German and Italian that everyone understands nowaday, nobody longer speaks Gulevache"

Also they have dozens and dozens of great quotes that only geeks get (not unlike you people and Monty Python)
