Zebrahead is a Punk Rap group consisting of Ali Tabatabaee, Ed Udhus, Ben Osmundson, Dan Palmer, and Adrian Estrella providing a bizarre yet interesting mix of high-energy rock guitar and high-energy hip-hop style vocals. Over the years their style has evolved from a more funk hip-hop style in their early albums to a more refined hard rock sound, with rapping (usually by Ali, who as an actual rapper nicely makes his rapping flow with and transition to and from the non-rap vocals) mixed in. Former members include founding lead guitaristMostly unheard of in America, they're strangely popular in Japan. This was enough to warrant Ali and Matty being called on to perform the main theme to Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), "His World", which (along with the rest of that game's soundtrack) is arguably the best thing about that game. They also came out with a full band remix of said song, which is arguably even cooler.They also have a thing about singing womens' cover songs, as they released a cover of "Wannabe" (yes, that "Wannabe") by the Spice Girls (yeah, those Spice Girls), and released a whole album of womens' pop covers, Panty Raid. | |

Sophisticated as Hell | |
| Zebrahead (Band) (Music) / int_2d4a6d8c | comment |
Sophisticated as Hell: Ali seems fond of this. Brixton makes use of the word "rhetoric," for starters, and several of their songs tackle major social issues by Ali basically screaming a combination of clever analogies and cusswords. | |

| Zebrahead (Band) (Music) / int_44091cba | comment |
Punk Rap/Rap Rock: As mentioned above, the rock part became emphasized more starting with MFZB. Of course, the combination of rapping and rock instruments has always been their style. | |

Dissonant Serenity | |
| Zebrahead (Band) (Music) / int_5f146203 | comment |
Dissonant Serenity: "Mental Health". Ali seems crazy through most of the song in the lyrics (About a patient in a mental hospital), and when Matty's lyrics come in he sings 'All I want is to go home, just for a bit...but these padded rooms are the shit!'. Moment of clarity, then back to the nut farm. | |

Rearrange the Song | |
| Zebrahead (Band) (Music) / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song: After Matty and Ali were approached by SEGA to provide vocals to "His World" - the main theme of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) - the band would go on to record their own arrangement of the song. The Early Years - Revisited saw the band re-record a number of songs from their first three albums, with Matty singing all of the parts originally sang by Justin. Brain Invaders - Deluxe Goes Instrumental is (as the name suggests) the deluxe edition of Brain Invaders, minus the vocal parts of the songs. | |
