The band Thumpasaurus makes silly music videos, particularly the maximalist "TALKIN' BOUT" (like a 2020s answer to Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" video) and the Western-inflected "Struttin'" (caution for a bare butt).

“Struttin’” feels like Straight to Hell’s happier younger sibling.

Oh yeah, I found this band because the lead singer's dad was doing these weird mock conspiracy things online that ended up pointing to his son's band. I think the first one was for I'm Pissed. It was sweet.

Thank you for this. I immediately added them to my favorites and am not sure how I missed them!

Wow, shades of Sparks, Talking Heads and Devo. What a blast!

They seem like a modern version of Southern Culture on the Skids to me. Novelty music for sure, but fun.

My wife made me a "You won't like me 'til I've had my dance" coffee mug. Missed merchandising opportunity there for sure.
