Has anyone else heard of them? They're a comedy/musical group; I saw them perform in DC once. They're absolutely hilarious. They're also slightly left of center in the same way that the Daily Show is left of center: they make fun of powerful people who spew bull shit, so that means they mostly mock Republicans.

I think their best song is "Reverend Robertson" (no points for guessing who that's about) which is a parody of Simon and Garfunkel's "Mrs. Robinson". It contains some awesome lyrics: "And here's to you, Reverend Robertson. Jesus doesn't even watch your show!" "You're greatest proof against intelligent design. Please tell us once again, now: who would Jesus shoot?"

"Guantanamo" is fun too.

They've got a few downloads at capsteps.com.
