Hotblack Desiato, front man of Disaster Area.
Disaster Area is a plutonium rock band fronted by Hotblack Desiato from the Gagrakacka Mind Zones, and this ensemble is generally regarded as not only the loudest rock band in the Galaxy, but also the loudest noise of any kind at all.
Music style[]
Disaster Area's songs are on the whole very simple and mostly follow the familiar theme of boy-being meets girl-being beneath silvery moon, which then explodes for no adequately explored reason.
Regular concert goers judged that the best sound balance was usually to be heard from within large concrete bunkers some thirty-seven miles away from the stage, whilst the musicians themselves played their instruments by remote control from within a heavily insulated spaceship which stayed in orbit around the planet - or, more frequently, around a completely different planet.
Many worlds have now banned their act altogether, sometimes for artistic reasons, but most commonly because the band's public address system contravenes local strategic arms limitations treaties.
This has not, however, stopped their earnings from pushing back the boundaries of hypermathematics, and their chief research accountant has recently been appointed Professor of Neomathematics at the the University of Maximegalon, in recognition of both his General and his Special Theories of Disaster Area Tax Returns, in which he proves that the whole fabric of the space-time continuum is more than merely curved; it is, in fact, totally bent.
Trivia[]
