Literally never heard of them before this episode. I guess I found it funny that they would dedicate an entire episode to jerking them off like they were relevant. Clearly a writer had a big boner for them
Maybe it's like a synergy, product placement type shit. Fox probably owns both the label and the show so they pushed
I doubt it's product placement. The writers probably just liked the band. Loke when Sonic Youth had a cameo on the Simpsons because Groening is a musoc autist.
It's more about becoming obsessed about a band. It could have been any random band. They just had to pick one to write the episode and MMJ was somewhat popular at the time.
They were getting big around 2003-5, if you were within cool circles obviously you fags wouldn’t know. Anyways, they did a concert in California around 05 I think and the opener for MMJ was Wax Fang who did the song for “The Majestic”, that song when Jeff is on the ship with Roger’s grey alien people. Written by Barker he likely saw the show and tripped.
It’s a good episode and basically works with any newish band
I assume 1) someone on the show liked them 2) it was the only band they could get for the money they were offered
because it's not time for your afternoon jacket yet
CARLOOOOOS!
This is the first good Carlos post I've seen in years
That was the first time I ever heard of them. I wondered that then too

Nothing else explains this. They weren't relevant and they still aren't relevant.

Gotta thank this episode for getting me into them, still listen to them occasionally.
They are really shit though, why would you torture yourself?
They were so generic I thought the songs and entire band were made up by the writers
>not only watches family guy rejects
>also gets influenced by it
The absolute state of Cinemaphile
>t. only listens to the most basic of dadrock and shitty metal
I don't listen to music. It's for low IQ homosexuals and women. Who can't stand be alone with their on thoughts for 5 seconds.
Yes sir! Music is to being for Majarratis! Smart for to no music!
Accurate
>t. only listens to the most basic of dadrock and shitty metal
I legit have a friend like this. Nigga's playlist is 95% Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Metallica, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
>listening to Redditvana , Joo Fighters, Reddit Hot Chili Pedos, Memetallica
Oof fr
>My Morning Jacket fag calling other music boomer rock
Zoomets are more likely to recognize Guns n Roses over this shit
I figured them being mediocre to decent was part of the joke, that Stan was so stunted that he becomes obsessed with the first band someone shows him

I assumed they were a fictional band up until the credits where they played a clip from them performing.

My brother liked the band.

MMJ is cool, I found out about them from that Conan performance in like 2004
is that heckin MMJ?
>come into thread about the band
>shit on it when it gets posted
good one anon, great work
Rick and Morty did the same shit with Flight of the Concords ten years past when they were relevant
No one here pretends Reddit and Morty is good here though
No one? Fucking retarded homosexual
