What fictional band does Timmy Burch front in 'Timmy 2000'?

The story behind the answer

Timmy Burch fronts the fictional band Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld in “Timmy 2000.”

The band forms after Timmy is excused from homework because of his attention-deficit disorder. He discovers that repeatedly shouting his own name can function as a distinctive musical hook, and the group quickly becomes a sensation in South Park.

The episode plays the band’s success as a satire of music-industry hype. Timmy’s limited vocabulary becomes a marketing advantage, while the band’s heavy-metal presentation makes the deliberately simple lyrics seem grand and rebellious. The title also parodies dramatic rock-band naming conventions.

The song is not merely an in-show gag: “Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld” was released as a real single by the South Park creators in 2000. It later appeared as a playable bonus track in the music video game Rock Band. “Fingerbang,” another option in the quiz, is also a fictional South Park band, but it is associated with the episode “Fingerbang,” not Timmy’s group.
