A Band Called "Mummytroll?"

[Frylock]

I was in a comic book shop the other day, and kind of liked the music I heard playing on the tape recorder behind the counter. I asked the guy working there what it was, and he said what sounded to me like “Mummytroll.” He also told me they are a Russian band.

I haven’t found any reference to “Mummytroll” as a Russian band through google, so I must have misheard or I must be misspelling it. Anyone know what band it might have been?

It’s been a few months since I heard it, actually, and I have no real recollection of the music or else I’d try to describe it to you.

Never mind. Googling “russia mummytroll” now gives me results. Maybe I misspelled it before or something.

In case you are interested, here is the groups official web page. They’ve been around for a little while and are reasonably popular.

Does anyone else think “mummytroll” sounds like a really nasty D&D monster?

Sounds more like a Moomintroll

Probably a parody of the name.
If you didn’t know what a Moomintroll is, think of a white hippo ala the Smurfs.
