There was a version of the disturbed song ‘down with the sickness’ on dawn of the dead. Does anyone know who wrote it and sings it?
It is by Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine, a group that performs tongue-in-cheek Vegas-style lounge-jazz covers of current pop songs.

Richard (Dick) Cheese!
I’ve been listening to him quite a bit recently. He does some pretty damn good renditions of songs! (I personally am partial to Wrong Way by sublime, and Smoke Two Joints, also by sublime, as well as a few others I can’t quite remember).
Just a warning - Watch the fine print & don’t assume his discography is as large as shown on his web site or on the booklet of his CDs. There are a number of fake albums he lists.
Of the dozen or so CD’s listed here…only the bottom few are real - even though I do like the cover art on the phony ones.
Unfortunately, there aren’t “65 albums, EPs, LPs, 45s, 12"s, 78s, and/or cassingles…in the limited-release “7-Track” format”
In other words there isn’t an extensive back catalog or “surviving gems from the Richard Cheese ouevre”
There isn’t a:
“The Battle Of Las Vegas”,
“Daiquiri Of A Madman”,
“Kid A flat”,
“King Of Cheese”,
“Good Evening Nasty”,
“White Album” with a lime green cover,
“Back In Black Tie”,
“Cheesy Road” or
“Straight Outta Vegas”
…oh, and if you want my opinion, somebody owes Bill Murray either a whole lotta money or a giant debt of gratitude
