Sex Bob-Omb goes emo.

Sex Bob-omb is Scott's unpopular band, comprising of Stephen Stills (vocals and guitar), Scott Pilgrim (bass), and Kim Pine (drums). The name is a double reference to Bob-omb, a character from the Super Mario series and the Tom Jones song "Sex Bomb."


They are an average band, neither wildly popular nor terrible, though the banality of later recording their album results in the band hardly ever playing gigs or practicing and getting rusty.









History

Sonic and Knuckles was the band Kim Pine and Scott Pilgrim played with during high school. However, it only played one gig at Lunchapalooza as Scott moved to Toronto almost straight after. Kid Chameleon was a band founded by Stephen Stills, Envy Adams, and Scott Pilgrim when they were in college together. Other members joined later on, including Young Neil's sister, Steph Nordegraf . A record deal and relationship issues between Scott and Envy led to Stephen and Scott leaving the band. Envy then founded The Clash at Demonhead.


Sex Bob-Omb was founded around the time Kim moved to Toronto. The band enjoyed no success. After Scott defeated Todd Ingram at Lee's Palace in volume 3 , they played and were generally praised by the crowd.

In volume 4 , Stephen spots Joseph's home recording studio as he helps Kim move into Hollie and Joseph's apartment. Joseph agrees to record their songs, but only because he finds Stephen attractive. Stephen's obsessive recording lead to them not practicing and getting rusty. Stephen even turned down gigs because they were "recording".


The group inevitably split after everyone realizes this story is crap.

After the fallout at Chaos Theatre, Scott and Kim reformed as the duo Shatter Band. With Scott on guitar and vocals, and Kim back on drums, the two are seen to perform once only for Young Neil and Knives, where they have an overall negative response of there music.

Ooh look, an obvious distraction!

n the Movie, all of Sex Bob-omb's music was written by Beck Hansen and performed by the actors.

Furthermore, the group never breaks-up, but instead are signed to a label by Gideon. Scott refuses to sign, and is replaced by Young Neil. When Scott comes to confront Gideon, the trio are somewhat dejected and Kim quotes them as being "sellouts" the first time around. Scott doesn't seem to mind being replaced at this point, and after cashing in his Extra Life he inspires the group inciting them (and Kim) to play more hardcore for the second run.
