Raised By Owls are a comedic DeathMetal[=/=]{{Grindcore}} band from Derbyshire, England, featuring Tobias Cope on bass, Mark Bainbridge on guitar, Alex [=LeGrice=] on guitar and backing vocals, Lee Deane on drums and Sam Fowler on Vocals.
Imagine the harsh sound you'd expect from death metal or grindcore, but underscored with a flavour of dry British humour, an attitude which persists throughout their various assorted comedy skits.
Their music can be found on [[https://raisedbyowls.bandcamp.com/ Bandcamp]], and their skits can be found on [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFoIeuvzcd3JPlz_Ck-wxGQ their YouTube channel]].
