Lounge Against the Machine, released on Oglio Records on October 17, 2000, puts Richard Cheese in the spotlight: the smarmy lounge singer created and played by Los Angeles actor, comedian and singer Mark Jonathan Davis. The joke is simple and it works: take popular songs and croon them as swing and lounge numbers, turning rock-radio fury into cocktail-hour schmaltz.
"Last Resort" is the one that got the countdowns laughing along. The deadpan delivery is the whole game, and Davis never breaks character. Tuxicity came next.
