Starbomb is a musical-comedy group consisting of the two main hosts of the video game let’s play show ‘Game Grumps’, Arin Hanson and Dan Avidan, and Brian Wecht.

 

Before the three joined forces in 2013, Dan and Brian were already making music as the comedy band Ninja Sex Party.

When Arin started making music with them, they formed a separate band dedicated to making songs based on video game characters.

 

As we are closing in on the release of their third album, I figured I would share some of my favorite songs by them here.
