A fictional band created by the Flash animator Jonti "Weebl" Picking of Weebl & Bob fame. Savlonic consists of singer Roscoe Thunderpants (voiced by Weebl), singer/keyboardist Evangeline D'isco (voiced by Sarah Darling), and backing vocalist/drummer Kandi Flaus (voiced by Katt Wade).At first, six Savlonic songs were released: "Electro Gypsy" (2008), "Tiny Japanese Girl" (2010), "Wandering Eye" (2011), "The Driver" (2012), "Computer Guy" (2013), and "Spelunker" note (weebls-stuff link not available for Spelunker, the link is a direct YouTube link to the video on Mr. Weebl's channel), each accompanied by Flash-made animated music videos created by Picking and Peabo. All tracks are available as iTunes singles.A full album: Red, was released in mid 2014 after a successful Kickstarter campaign. It not only collects the singles together for the first time with re-recorded vocals, but also features three new songs, Android, Girls and Spelunker, plus five new remixes.note Well, four remixes and a instrumental violin cover of "Wandering Eye".A second album called Neon was produced and released with funding from Kickstarter. One backer will get to be featured in a music video. Additionally, Weebl voices the singer in TheLivingTombstone's remix of Epoch with Savlonic specifically getting the credit.A third album titled emulat0r was put together in the time span of 3 weeks in September 2017 after they asked in a Facebook post what covers fans would like to see them perform. Turns out they were really into the idea of a Cover Album of tracks like "I Ran", "Sweet Dreams (are Made of This)", and "Fasion is Danger".

Concept Album: Neon tells the story of how the band is forced to record and play endlessly and decide to break the cycle leading to Rosco getting kidnapped by new enemies with Evangeline coming to save him. Where the story is meant to go from there is currently unknown although Weebl has stated he plans to animate every song on the album to tell the full story.

Metaphorgotten: "Spelunker" uses the whole idea of exploring a cave as a metaphor for trying to understand a romantic partner more deeply. About halfway through the song, Roscoe points out how badly the idea is being stretched.

Instrument of Murder
 Savlonic (Music) / int_655d406a
comment
Instrument of Murder: In "Broken", the band members use weaponized versions of their instruments to destroy the stage. Evangeline's keytar is also a BFG, and Roscoe's microphone doubles as an electric whip and laser blade knife. Kandi, on the other hand, seems to cause the most destruction simply by drumming with both hands.

Prior to the RED album, Kandi's backing vocals were done purely by pitch changing Evangeline's, so she was literally The Voiceless.

Three-Point Landing
 Savlonic (Music) / int_9eaf2be0
comment
Three-Point Landing: "Computer Guy" has all three landing in poses that are clearly intended to invoke this trope, although none of them actually perform it exactly as described. Instead, they all land with one foot and one knee on the ground, with the hands in various positions. Kandi's hands are both on the ground side-by-side, Roscoe rests a hand on each knee, and Evangeline has one hand stretched away from her body and the other at her waist.

Eyes Out of Sight: Evangeline's blond hair has long bangs that usually cover her eyes or at least are big enough to cast shadows that cover her eyes. In "Wandering Eye", appropriately enough, she reveals her eyes... with squicky results.

Shout-Out: A scene in "Electro Gypsy" homages the stockroom scene from The Matrix, with synthesizers in place of weaponry. High-level Kickstarter backers Damian Bevan and Andrew Neidig appear, in animated form, in the video for "Spelunker." "Computer Guy" has some very clear and almost overt TRON references.

Art Evolution: Starting with Wandering Eye, created by another animator (Peabo), the videos are far more advanced graphically and no longer depict the characters in borderline Super-Deformed style. Peabo's art for the band has continued to evolve with each video, introducing new hairstyles and outfits for the characters.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Kandi has only drummed with both hands on two occasions. The first was as a People Puppet under Computer Guy's control. The second was in "Broken," where she is evidently sick of the band's declining relationship. Both instances resulted in the stage being destroyed by The Power of Rock.
