Mastodon
The band members are fans of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and in 2007, Mastodon performed the opening song of Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters, "Cut You Up with A Linoleum Knife". In the movie, the band members are animated as a pretzel (bass guitarist), an icecaps candy box (lead guitarist), a container of nachos (drummer), and a green DOTS gumdrop candy singing vocals. The song is meant to be a humour piece in which they threaten violence against anyone who disobeys movie theatre etiquette.
