I was told about this band today and a coworker showed me a youtube video of what they're like.
My question is not a joke, but the existence of this band may be?
Help me understand? Wtf this is? Is this an attempt to troll the world that people have accepted as "rock music" so they kept going? Is this "real music" and I'm the idiot?

It feels like elevator music for people in the "Beavis and Butthead" universe.

WTF IS HAPPENING?! (And no I'm not just talking about their absolutely ludicrous appearance, I'm talking about the whole package. The music sounds like LSD fueled song intros looped together without ever reaching a chorus, ever.

They have silly outfits because it’s fun to make your friends laugh and be goofy, and also because it protects privacy and creates a cohesive world.

The story I heard behind the costumes is that they used to play at a venue that only let a band perform once per day. They put on the outfits to appear as a different band and get paid for an extra set.
