"A FREE FOR ALL IN A LATE NIGHT GODZILLA MOVIE!" - Joe Corroney
Ishiro Automatron AKA "Auto": bass guitar, vocals, pilot.
Auto is convinced that he is invisible and that nobody can see him. Drove a Taxi once. Thinks he can fly anything like TC from Magnum P.I.
Maximilian De Kill AKA "Max": keyboards, vocals, aerial recon and attack.
Max is an airborne attack unit... an aspect complicated by the fact that he cannot fly. Discontinued after multiple crashes. Likes to drink "alcohol & oil" and can be found passed-out on an asteroid outside the Circle-K's of Altair-6.
Stroboticus Maximus AKA "Strobo": lead vocals, lead guitar, strategist.
Strobo is walking radio tower. Acts as the communication hub for the robot armies as they go into battle. Unfortunately due to a glitch in his programming he can only broadcast reruns of I love Lucy.
Dr. Robert H. Troganstein AKA "Trog": drums, beserker.
Trog is a berserker robot. Built by the Third Robot Empire as a front line combat unit. Trog operates more on instinct rather than intellect. When Trog goes into action you may never know what side he's on. Then again neither does he.
Trog received an honorary doctorate from the City College of Bethesda Maryland for his heart rending reading of Tolstoy's Anna Karenina.
DRUNK DIAL MESSENGER CENTER: leave the robots a drunken message and donate a little part of your intoxication to the galaxy... don't worry, it won't cost you anything. Except your dignity.
Background information: after attempting to make a beer run in a stolen imperial battle-foot, the Killer Robots (Trog, Strobo, Auto and Max) collide with a piece of space debris and crash land on earth. Forced to wait over a hundred years for an essential part, the four get part time jobs and start a rock band to pay the bills.
"Cosmic Potato Tour 2010" is the Killer Robots 5th year of live tours, chock full of songs & battles, asparagus creatures, rock lobsters, sexy alien girls, the infamous Zeta Blaster, giant motor gods, and the omnipresent King of the Moon. To fully understand and comprehend the Killer Robots and the "Cosmic Potato Tour 2010 ", intoxication is recommended. To book your town on the tour email the Killer Robots at thekillerrobots@gmail.com
The Killer Robots span over a comic book series, cartoon, tv show, movie, a band and live tour. For more information check out their website at www.killerrobots.tv.

"Oh man i can't say enough about how spectacular the Killer Robots look. They put on an incredible show despite blowing a fuse several songs into their set. If you ever get the chance to see them I highly recommend it. This was filmed at the Atlantic in Gainesville, FL."
-Mr. Frog
CAPTAIN ZERO:
"Words can't even describe what happened that night. Between the Robots, whose sound can be described as an amalgamation of metal-synth-polka music, and the extravagant costumes from the groupies on the floor ranging from Lobster Boy, The Dumpster Monster and Robot Abraham Lincoln, it wasn't so much a concert as it was more like a free for all in a late night Godzilla movie. And we were caught right at ground zero for all of it."
-Joe Corroney, Star Wars Artist and Illustrator
"In other words, a GWAR concert, but hopped up on steroids, angel dust and crank. Gotta love it. I mean, have you ever noticed that there’s not much to do at concerts? You can listen the band, who usually turn their amps up so high that you can’t understand them, and if you’re at a metal concert you can jump into the mosh pit, but that’s about it. But whacking something called Monko the Gladiator with a pool noodle? That sounds like fun."

FLORIDA MUSIC FESTIVAL 2007:
"And then Kenny told us: "I've worked a lot of odd shows... I've worked for Gwar 3 times, I've worked for Marilyn Manson, and all kinds of strange and creepy bands. But this [the Killer Robots], hands down, was the weirdest show I've ever been a part of.""

PS NOW FOR A DISCLAIMER CONCERNING THE ANTI-GRAVITY INVISIBLE BRA!!!
Any resemblance to reality is purely coincidental since the government would never ever really give you anything that you truly wanted or remotely liked or needed.
