22 (-) See You In Hell - Grim Reaper

I didn't remember this group until now. So i've been watching the new Beavis and Butthead series (on Paramount+) and i also just watched this 1993 Letterman clip that was uploaded last week where Mike Judge describes how Grim Reaper's singer came up to him and encouraged him to show more videos as they had "even worse" than the first one they showed. All three of their album title tracks were mocked on the show. They were a British band but they had more success in the US. Most Brits - like me - only ever saw them or heard them on Beavis and Butthead.

For the record - here are all three original clips followed by the Beavis and Butthead clips:

- Spinal Tap!

- the funniest B&B clip of the 3

Singer Steve Grimmett was involved in an accident in 2017 and had a leg amputated. His only UK success was as part of the group Onslaught.

Yes, should be one word really - Kerrang! spelled it as two.

Their vocalist was Maryann (Scandiffio) (which Kerrang! spelled as Mary Ann....)

By (not particularly interesting) coincidence - Black Lace's UK Eurovision entry in '79 was a song called 'Mary Ann'....

[Blondini]

They should be listed as Blacklace or BlackLace, really. https://www.discogs.com/artist/660658-Blacklace?noanv=1

It's more fitting for that style of band though i know the other one didn't start out as a novelty band.

I've not heard of Baby Tuckoo. A wiki search reveals that they were from the new city of culture, Bradford. The full album is on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PAHC8jfH6A

Don't remember ever hearing of them either - I can't find anything about them in then contemporary Kerrang! - but just listened to that album and it's pretty good.

Daft band name though - apparently an obscure James Joyce reference!
