and Kim Pine (drums). The name refers to Bob-omb, a sentient walking wind-up spherical mortar bomb character from the Super Mario series, and is a play on the term "sex bomb" and the punk band Sex Pistols. They are an average band, neither wildly popular nor terrible, though the banality of later recording their album results in the band hardly ever playing gigs or practicing and thus getting rusty. In the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World film, the music of Sex Bob-Omb is written by Beck. The Clash at Demonhead is the band of Scott's ex-girlfriend Envy. The name refers to the NES game Clash at Demonhead, as well as recalling the punk band The Clash. The band and the stage clothes of Envy were inspired by the band Metric which is also from Toronto, and in the film their music is performed by Metric. Sonic & Knuckles is Scott's first band, in high school with Kim Pine and Lisa Miller. It is named after the Sega Genesis game Sonic & Knuckles. Crash and the Boys is another local band, whose songs are short as 0.4 seconds long. Its name refers to an NES game, Crash 'n the Boys: Street Challenge, localized from the Japanese Kunio-kun series. They later rename themselves The Boys!! And Crash!! in volume 3, after a "coup d'etat". In the film, their music is performed by Broken Social Scene. Kid Chameleon is Scott's university band with Stephen Stills, Envy, as well as Young Neil's sister Stephanie, among others. It is named after the Sega Genesis game Kid Chameleon. Shatterband is a band made up of Scott Pilgrim (guitar and vocals) and Kim Pine (drums) at the end of volume 6. Much like in Sex Bob-Omb, Kim is shown shouting "We are Shatterband! ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR!" at the beginning of one of their songs. As it turns out, the only two people who could be their fans, Knives Chau and Young Neil, have "developed taste", so they decide to play exclusively to Ramona's cat instead. Before this band is formed, Scott offhandedly suggests the name for Stephen's new band, saying he had been "holding on to it for a while" (the fact that Scott and Kim use the name suggests that Stephen did not take it). This band is likely named after the NES game Shatterhand. References External links Silverman, Natalie (Hollywood.com staff). "Scott Pilgrim's World." New York Post.
