Jim Steinman was so good.

No, they are the only passable one. Though there is a kind of cottage industry for Bubble Man covers

Ok, but it’s not the same thing when you’re covering himself

I entered the thread thinking it was about the movie's music.

GODSPEEEED GODSPEEEED SPEED US AWAAAAAAAY

are they even still around, last I recall was them saying "act 3 soon guys" and then spending a decade doing nothing but covers of 80's tracks

This is a very cool art style, is there a name for it?

Protomen still have these posters on their merch store. I picked up a set for my garage last year. Super nice.

Not sure. It seemed unique, that's why it was the first thing I thought when I see this album. The movie itself has a cyberpunky+50s sort of aesthetic. I guess the poster somewhat evokes it.
