Ripping out of the cornfields of Topeka, Kansas (Topeka ROCKS!!!) like a group of Blue Ribbon hogs running from the butcher, Placental Armageddon is the hottest hardcore a cappella metal band since Huey Lewis & the News! Unquestionably the most promising new a cappella metal band in the country, PA is touring the country, fielding offers from record companies, and living the glamorous, hard-rocking a cappella lifestyle.

But life wasn't always so easy...

Placental Armageddon began in the dusty, wood-floored parlor of the Armageddon Family farmhouse in Topeka. The fourth generation of Armageddon farmers to rend the soil in Topeka, Paul and Phyliss Armageddon raised their three sons, twins Parker and Peter and younger brother Phipher, on a diet of sweet corn, hard work on the form during the day and relaxing to the sweet strains of heavy metal music at night. The boys took to the music at a very young age, winning applause and ribbons and the occassional baby duck at the annual county fair for their three-part harmony renditions of the great metal tunes they had learned at their mother's knee.

Times were hard for all the farmers at the time the boys entered high school, and things got even worse when Papa Armageddon threw out his back while defending himself in an air guitar duel with the neighbor over who would have made a better farmer, Ozzy or Axl. Desperate to make ends meet and not to lose the farm, the boys all took jobs at the local Swine & Dine, working tag-team to cover all the shifts whiles still keeping up the work on the farm.

The boys were in the habit of singing while they worked, and often drew a crowd when all three of them were on shift, the old farmers crowding around the counter to request their favorite songs, and often singing along and waxing nostalgic as the boys sang the metal music of the farmers' youth. Magic struck one afternoon when cousin Pavlov, on his way to a barbershop music convention in Lincoln, stopped in to see the boys before he left to find his fortune. Pavlov added in the ferocious drums as he had so many times when visiting the farm, and the sound drove the crowd of farmers into a dusty, overalled, headbanging frenzy. As fate would have it, trapped in the middle of the agricultural mosh pit was Perry Andrus, a famous music manager who was visiting his sister who lived nearby. Smelling gold, Andrus approached the boys about taking them on the road. They had to wait until Pavlov finished his Barbershop show, but then they were ready to go.

After several months on the road, they lured Patrick, who had married Pavlov's sister and taken her surname as his own, away from his lucrative but ultimately unfulfilling music gig with the legendary Russian a cappella punk band, 'Natasha's Spleensicle.'
