(James Blast Orchester) is a comedy heavy metal band from Erlangen, Germany.

[1] The band has written more of its own songs since 2000, but continues to produce parodies, which they refer to as Blöedsinn – an intentional misspelling of "Blödsinn," which means "nonsense" or "stupidity" in German.

The band have since changed references to "Patrizier Bräu" in their lyrics to "Pariser Bier" (Parisian beer).

Kellner previously played in Fiddler's Green, which is alluded to in the song "Arschloch und Spaß dabei" ('Asshole and enjoying it'): "man sagt sogar, dass Wolfram früher Folk-Musik g'macht hätt" ("They even say that Wolfram used to play folk music").

The band still tours today, especially in Germany, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
