Kevin Zelnio is at the top of my list for musicians singing about invertebrates and the deep sea. The competition is small but Kevin is king.

Unfortunately, Kevin has some stiff competition. A one man band, Pagan Wanderer Lu, is leading a project to "highlight the plight of the Giant Isopod". In 2008, there will be a tribute CD released. You can hear 4 of the songs at the Bathynomuslove Records Myspace page. The tracks so far are predominately from British bands. More about the biology of Bathynomus here, here, and video here.

  1. Paul Hawkins - Isopod (I can evolve)
  2. Pocus Whiteface - Giant Isopods Ate My Well-Known Brand of Corn Chips
  3. Pagan Wanderer Lu - An Isopod Is Cute In The Eyes Of An Isopod
  4. Silence at Sea - Gladiators on Repeat
  5. Plurals - What Know They Of Bathynomus?
  6. The Jaynes - Crusty The Isopod
  7. Stealthtones - Nefarious Crustacean Confectionary Debacle
  8. Little My - In Isolation Nothing Makes Sense
  9. Werk - Giant Isopods Have Stolen My Gameboy
  10. Jam on Bread - Isopod in my bathroom
  11. The Silent Clothes - Hold it Together

FutureBaby Playlist: O-S
You know, there are really a remarkable number of bands whose names begin with "S"... There may be more "B" or "T" acts in my library, just because I own a bazillion songs by Bob Dylan and Tom Waits, but there sure are a lot of "S" artists. This set continues to show that sing-along-ability is the…

Hi there,
i'm Ziggy of Ziggy Bollus and The Thomas Ferguson Band. We haven't got a website but you can contact us via www.guiltmirrors.com yeah. Thank you for covering this, the profits are likely to go to a charitable cause as yet undecided.

Ziggy,
Link added. Tell the other bands I can add their links in to or change them if needed. Keep me updated and will continue to plug it at DSN. You should donate the profits to Oceana Europe that is working to protect deep environments like those of the Giant Isopod.
