En el ocaso del siglo XX, una efervescente ciudad de la costa oeste de Estados Unidos, Los Ángeles, vio cómo surgía una banda que dejaría una marca indeleble en la música contemporánea. "Parodias" se formó en 1998, en una época en la que el pop y el rock dominaban las ondas hertzianas. Sin embargo, el grupo tenía algo diferente: una aguda capacidad para transformar éxitos populares en sátiras hilarantes y llenas de ingenio, desafiando las normas establecidas de la industria musical.
La banda original estuvo compuesta por John Smith (vocalista y guitarrista), Mark Johnson (bajista), Lisa Miller (tecladista) y Dave Brown (baterista). Su primer álbum, "Humor Sonoro", llegó a las estanterías en 1999 y fue recibido con entusiasmo tanto por críticos como por el público en general. Las parodias de canciones icónicas como "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (renombrada como "Smells Like Clean Spirit") rápidamente capturaron la atención de una audiencia que apreciaba la frescura y originalidad del grupo.
Con el paso de los años, "Parodias" no solo mantuvo su relevancia, sino que encontró maneras de encantar a nuevas generaciones. Su segundo álbum, "Risas Sin Fronteras" (2002), incluyó éxitos como "My Sacrifice" de Creed, ahora "My Sacrilegious", y "Complicated" de Avril Lavigne, transformada en "Overcomplicated". Las letras ofrecían comentarios mordaces sobre temas sociales actuales, haciendo que sus canciones fueran no solo divertidas, sino también contundentes.

I'm gonna take it all with me.
