Any information on this band is gladly accepted. [[note]]SMOOCH is in reality a expy of [[Music/{{KISS}} KISS]] created by [[WesternAnimation/{{TheLoudHouse}} The Loud House]], which first appeared in the season one episode segment, "[[Recap/{{TheLoudHouseS1E13ForBrosAboutToRockItsALoudLoudLoudLoudHouse}} For Bros About To Rock]]", but that doesn't mean we can't have our own fun with it![[/note]]

->''"Okay, Wiki/TVTropes! You wanted the greatest, you got the greatest! The loudest band in the land, SMOOCH!"''

* Dressed to Do Nothing At All (1972)

* Mario Ka-Boom (2008)

* AllDrummersAreAnimals: Alan Myers wasn't. But gee whiz, Bob and Clarence were/are.
* BrokenBase: Especially after their FriendlyRivalry with [[WesternAnimation/{{Metalocalypse}} Dethklok]] turned into a full blown feud after Upperheimer remarked in an interview with Gathering Moss magazine "At least, nobody dies at our shows, well not intentionally...anyway, but still!", it escalated further when a chance confrontation in a parking garage in Los Angeles, Savino had with Dethklok bassist, Murderface turned into a dragout fight, making headlines around the world and landing lengthy hospital stays for both men.

** Any suggestion that Jack Zucchini played the bass organ (namely, a Raven Piano Bass, and at times a Rheem Kee Bass, outfitted with a fucking flamethrower) is the product of a highly deranged imagination.
* TheMovie: Ruby-Spears' "SMOOCH At The Haunted Funland", hailed by many fans as SoBadItsGood and a cult classic!
* RetroactiveRecognition: Any suggestion that Alan Myers played in this band before Devo, like the suggestion of Jack playing a bass organ, is the product of a highly deranged imagination.

They rose to prominence in the early-to-mid 1970s with their elaborate live performances, which featured water breathing, blood-snorting, odd-shaped guitars, shooting fireworks, smoking drum kits (which was later dropped after the drummer switched to a Simmons SDS-V), and rockets. The band has gone through several lineup changes, with Uppenheimer and Zucchini the only remaining original members.

* ''[[Creator/{{ChrisSavino}} Chris Savino]]'' - lead guitar, vocals (2002-present)
* ''Clarence Klunk'' - drums, vocals (2013-present)

** The documentary "We Love SMOOCH (But Does SMOOCH Love Us)?", shows this in action, including the infamous incident at "SMOOCHfest '93" where Zucchini and Upperheimer made a surprise appearance and proceeded to order the convention (which they said was illegal, because they didn't have their permission to put it on) shut down and the organizers (who were lifelong diehard fans!) arrested.
