The Laziest Men on Mars

The Laziest Men on Mars are a band known for their successful Gabber song "Invasion of the Gabber Robots" which remixed some of the Zero Wing video game music by Tatsuya Uemura, which became background music to the popular "All your base are belong to us" Flash animation.[1][2] Their song "Invasion of the Gabber Robots" was featured prominently on Mp3.com.[3] Their name is taken from a line in the B-movie Santa Claus Conquers The Martians, which the band samples in several of their songs.

The track "We Are Something Awful" is a Laziest Men On Mars song, but was not available on MP3.com at the time of Vivendi's sale of the site to CNET in 2003. It is still available as a free download on some music sites. In addition, they made the song "113 Dead Goons" for the Something Awful Forums.

The Terrible Secret of Space is based on an internet meme that originated in an instant message prank run by the editor of the humor website Something Awful, Richard Kyanka.
