8Emily Pukis and the Vagrants were an indie PunkRock-HeavyMetal band local to UsefulNotes/{{Philadelphia}} formed in October of 2010. Front runner of the band was popular underground animator Creator/EmilyYoucis and her "pet" vagrants: Leanne Martz, Zack Smith, & Gina Gleason. The band was created primarily to serve as a Music/GGAllin cover band, but began to form more of their own songs soon after.
9
10As of 2016, the band has broken up due to Emily abandoning her previous aspirations and embracing White Supremacy in both her public image and works.

12On a more positive note, Gina has been doing some work for Creator/CirqueDuSoleil, while two daughter bands (called Seed of Serpent and Fever Red) were also formed.

14!!Tropes related to this band:
15* BruiserWithASoftCenter/ FriendToAllLivingThings: They embody the hardcore, rebellious, violent lyrics and performances typical to Punk Rock, but also love long-haired miniature dachshunds, apparently, and petting goats. They're also super friendly in person and get along well with their friends.
16* CoverVersion: Covered many of GG's hits.
17* HeavyMetal: Parodied and Played Straight.
18* IntentionallyAwkwardTitle: The name of the band's frontrunner being a play on "puke". Also inferring it's being led by dirty homeless people.
19* LargeHam: Emily, as usual, barks and howls in her music.
20* LighterAndSofter: Compared to GG Allin, who inspired the band and who they covered many of his songs. Unlike him, they have a much more approachable personality when it comes to their fans and audience members and share none of his narcissistic personality. Oh, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick they don’t beat up and punch anybody]] during their performances.
21* MundaneMadeAwesome: Their Metal Metal photo montage. ''Everything'' is metal, even the goat petting.
22* PunkRock: They're audacious, foul, loud Rebellious Spirits and equate it well into their songs.
23* ThePigPen: Emily can be seen wallowing in dirt and (what we hope to be) fake blood in one music video.
24* TheStoner: The band can be seen smoking weed in their interviews.
25* TrueCompanions: The band was much more than the simple project to them. The members were quite close, Leanne and Emily having been best friends long before the band was even formed. Sadly averted post 2016 due to Emily's embrace of white supremacy and right-wing extremism.
26* TheWonka: Emily Pukis, leader of the band. She's an altogether {{Cloudcuckoolander}}, though led the band quite well. She was admired by fans and the bands co-members, before her extremist political views caused the band's breakup.
