Popular Music Vol. 3: The Johnny American Concept Album

Popular Music Vol. 3: The Johnny American Concept Album is an album by synth-pop band Goodbye the Band, released in 2001.

The album uses slightly sped-up pop music recorded with intentional, constant digital peaking, and aggressively goofy lyrics to illustrate a discomfiting universe of multiple courtships leadings to multiple infanticides, patricides, matricides and quests for fame.
