Founded by Hurtly Tiberium Chambers and Dr-Doctor in late 2009, the eclectic duo put the turd from the noughties truly back in the toilet and then out again like a whack-a-mole. Evidently, neither of them were professional cleaners.
In April 2010 the band recruited lead singer Ari Böðvarsson, after an incident involving an ice cream truck and a tube of superglue resulted in a high profile court case in which Ari's appointment was the outcome.
Ari's input was evident from the start, with the band now enjoying a new direction of effervescent pop tunes to please even the chavviest punk! His weak and warbling vocals, teamed with Dr-Doctor's ability to play his keyboards with his urinal tube, and backed by Hurtly's unhinged lyrics are what give the band their unique sound which has been commended by both John Peel (ask him to prove it!) and the king of pop himself, Kool-Aid guy.
One of their most popular singles, "Why Don't You Tie Me onto Wembley, Girl?", which has been recently adopted as the official anthem for the English football team, featured an independent hobo rapper on vocals. He provided the lyrics without the band's consent.
Since 2012, the band's output had suddenly stopped. Rumours circulated that this was the real implication of the 2012 Mayan Apocalypse but the band stressed that this isn't the case and that new songs were simply locked in Dr-Doctor's laptop, encrypted with a 256 bit encryption algorithm and no discernible way to open them.
Commendations:
"There are so many things I could cut down but this isn't one of them" - David Cameron
"Who needs nuclear weaponry when the Ministry of Defence has music from TTTP" - Nick Pope
"A new low" - The Time Travelling Pirates
"So this is what you spend your time doing?" - Hurtly's mum
"Ugly music for ugly people" - Andrew Marr
"Kraftwerk meets hardcore techno playschool" - Silverlage
"Balls, creams & alex turner is a violation of human rights. Oh well." - RagtimeGoldfield
