Why they might be annoying
Most people heard at least one of their songs, but only a few know the name of their group.
They whored out 'Oh Yeah' to any 1980's movie that wanted it in its soundtrack.
That song led to many college stoners imitating its 'bohm bohm, chick, chickita-cah' line.
They covered 'Jingle Bells' for the film 'The Santa Clause,' as if that song wasn't already covered enough times.
Meier is a professional gambler.
Both of them look like sleazy pimps.
Why they might not be annoying
Meier made his millions in industry before starting a music career.
His deep, dark voice and the group's weird samples have made the group unique.
The video for their 'Pinball Cha Cha' was included in the Music Video Exhibition for the Museum of Modern Art.
Blank has a very large library of original samples.
'Oh Yeah' was prominently featured in the cult classic 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' and is the theme for the Simpsons' character, Duffman.
