Green Jellÿ is a comedy/punk/metal band started in 1981 by an eccentric individual named Bill Manspeaker. They were originally named Green Jello, until they were sued by Kraft Foods in 1992. note they still get referred to as Green Jello, with the joke that a Y with an umlaut is pronounced like an "O". You may remember them by their 1992 hit single "Three Little Pigs", a somewhat... interesting take on the well-known nursery rhyme. Although they started back in the early '80s, they reached their peak in the early-mid '90s with their albums Cereal Killer (1991) and 333 (1994), before disappearing forever......or at least that's what everyone thought, because they never fully disbanded, and in the 2000s they began touring again. Their latest album, Musick To Insult Your Intelligence By, was released in 2009, although it had been recorded in 1995. The band is currently working on an upcoming fifth album titled Green Jellö Nursery Crimes.They are known for being intentionally cheesy, calling themselves "the worst band in the world" and using the slogan "GREEN JELLO SUXX!!", as well as incorporating homemade puppets and weird characters on their stage shows. They've had loads and loads of lineup changes, with frontman Bill Manspeaker being the only constant member since the beginning.Discography: Let It Be (EP, 1984) Triple Live Möther Gööse at Budokan (1989) Cereal Killer (1992 video album, re-released in audio-only format the following year as Cereal Killer Soundtrack) 333 (1994) Musick To Insult Your Intelligence By (2009, recorded in 1995) | |

New Sound Album | |
Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: They started as a noisy punk band, with Triple Live Mother Goose they became more metal-oriented, Cereal Killer was a bit more eclectic and 333 was an all-out Genre Roulette. | |

Miniscule Rocking | |
Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_2e70a1db | comment |
Miniscule Rocking: "Icrog" from Let It Be lasts for ONE. FRIGGING. SECOND. The Triple Live Mother Goose version adds a spoken introduction extending it to one minute, however. Other examples: "You're Gone" (1:44), "Nightmare on Sesame Street" (1:41), "Food Fight" (1:17)... and every song on Let It Be. | |

Doom Metal | |
Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_3bc3f899 | comment |
Triple Live Mother Goose and Cereal Killer also qualify, albeit to a lesser extent, as they mostly jump between punk and metal. The former includes the circus-esque intro "Circus Circus" as well as the funk rock of "Whip Me Teenage Babe" and the Doom Metal number "Eat Satan's Ham, while the latter has the classic rock tune "Electric Harley House of Love", a techno version of "Whip Me Teenage Babe" titled "House Me Teenage Rave", and "Tripping on XTC", which starts as Funk Rock and then becomes Stoner Rock. | |

Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_43273c71 | comment |
Long Runner: They formed in 1981 and have never disbanded, though they were rather inactive in the second half of the '90s. Bill Manspeaker has been the band's face since the beginning. Co-founder Joe "Dunderhed" Cannizaro also deserves a mention for being in the band from their inception until the hiatus. | |

Genre Roulette | |
Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_4b1ca7d2 | comment |
Genre Roulette: The 333 album. It contains, among others, Deathrock ("Carnage Rules", "Fixation"), Thrash Metal ("Orange Krunch"), Noise Rock ("Fight"), a rock ballad (Anthem), and a B-52's style parody ("Slave Boy"). Triple Live Mother Goose and Cereal Killer also qualify, albeit to a lesser extent, as they mostly jump between punk and metal. The former includes the circus-esque intro "Circus Circus" as well as the funk rock of "Whip Me Teenage Babe" and the Doom Metal number "Eat Satan's Ham, while the latter has the classic rock tune "Electric Harley House of Love", a techno version of "Whip Me Teenage Babe" titled "House Me Teenage Rave", and "Tripping on XTC", which starts as Funk Rock and then becomes Stoner Rock. | |

Revolving Door Band: The number of lineup changes they've had is so big, there isn't even a complete list of members. The classic lineup included Maynard James Keenan (under the stage name "Billy Bob") and Danny Carey. | |

Album Intro Track: Triple Live Mother Goose has "Circus Circus". "Green Jell-Ö Theme Song" on Let It Be. Later subverted when in was rerecorded for Cereal Killer, as it appears as the last track on that album. | |

Epic Rocking: Both "Anthem" and the Cereal Killer version of "Three Little Pigs" are roughly 6 minutes long. The latter was 7 minutes long on Triple Live Mother Goose, and "Eat Satan's Ham" from that same album is 7:39. | |

Instrumentals: "Food Fight" (excluding the "FOOOOOOOOD FIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!" scream at the beginning). On Let It Be there's "Icrog", and the semi-instrumentals "Hill Hill" (which contains wordless vocals) and "The Ice Cream Song" (which has some spoken vocals at the beginning). | |

Rearrange the Song | |
Green Jellÿ (Music) / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song: "Whip Me Teenage Babe", originally a funk rock song, was reworked into "House Me Teenage Rave", a techno track, for Cereal Killer. Most of the songs in Triple Live Mother Goose were revamped for Cereal Killer. "I've Got Poo Poo on My Shoe" from Let It Be was also revamped for Cereal Killer under the name "Misadventures of Shitman", while "Icrog", also from Let It Be, was redone for Triple Live Mother Goose. | |
