If your favorite band was a splatoon band who would it be and what species would they be? :3 (totally not asking this because that's what I'm drawing,,,)
If my favourite band was a Splatoon band eh? And what species they would be?
Well first off, we need to establish who's my favourite band of all time. And it's...
THE GORILLAZ BABY!!!!!!!! WOOO!!!!!! I FUCKING LOVE THE GORILLAZ!
Peak band, peak fucking band idc.
2-D would be an Inkling and have his iconic black/white eyes ofc.
Murdoc gives me sanitized octoling vibes due to his unique green skin colour.
I can see Russel being a giant crab, he gives me Mr. Coco vibes somewhat, or Sid from Chirpy Chips.
Noodle (my favourite, i love her) might be a sea anemone? Or some kind of fish? I don't know which, it's hard to pinpoint a species Noodle could be.

The camera focuses outside, showing a mess of trees and dark skies. In the center stands Murdoc Niccals, with his hair over his face, wearing a suit that looks rather like it lost a fight. He’s got a huge grin on his face, and his hands in his trouser pockets.
‘Bout time you interviewed me.
It’s a pleasure. But…
I falter.
Was the blindfold necessary?
Murdoc’s face drops, and he rolls his eyes.
Boss’s orders. Can’t let anyone find out where the studio is. Not even the press.
Why not?
Fuck if I know.
He huffs and plays with his hair.
Mind asking a real question, love?
I nod and start leafing through my notes.
So, what’s your relationship with the other members like? There’s got to be a lot of interesting drama there.
Murdoc began to glare at me. He hesitated for a few moments before speaking.
Hate em all. Next?
I just have to know – what made you decide to join this band?
Murdoc preens.
Great question. I’ve had my fair share of experience in the ol’ biz – that means business, by the way – but I never really got into it properly, yeah?
He grabs the lapels of his jacket and tugs on them.
Poor Noodle ‘ere needed someone to help her out, and I thought, hey, I could do it! So I offered, and here we are. I’ve basically been running this thing ever since…
A shoe flies across the screen and hits Murdoc in the side of the head. He throws it back, and smiles at me like nothing happened.
She’s feisty.
I think back to my interview with Noodle.
Right, I noticed.
He winks at me. Or maybe just blinks? It’s hard to tell, with all the hair.
C’mon, next question. I don’t have all day, you know…
The camera nods up and down.
I was wondering, if you had the choice, how would you want to be remembered?
Murdoc gives a huge grin. As I expected — I picked one that I knew he would enjoy. He pushes his hair back.
Well, y’know how… well, every band has that one bloke who’s really remembered? Like Queen. Name all the members of Queen.
I hesitate for a moment as I try to think.
There’s Freddie Mercury, and, uhm…
He barks out a laugh.
Exactly! I intend to be the next Freddie Mercury. Shouldn’t be too hard, yeah? Blimey, I’m already the most important one here, ain’t I? Got us signed. ‘N God knows the birds love a bassist.
He laughs so hard that I briefly consider offering him some water.
What would you consider to be your biggest achievement?
He finally stops laughing. That’s good - it sounded like there was something stuck in his throat.
Hmm. Well, there’s a lot to choose from…
He trails off, then starts speaking again so soon that I’m not sure he had time to think at all.
If I absolutely had to pick one, I’d have to say my work on this album. Some of my best yet, yeah? Can’t wait for you all to see that one.
Speaking of the upcoming album, is there anything you can tell us about it?
Murdoc leans back.
Well, the boss wouldn’t want me to say much - can’t help that much, can I?
He leans in again, conspiratorially.
But a little birdie told me that there’s gonna be some big names on it with us.
With a cheeky grin, he gets away from the camera again.
Any more questions?
This is the hard one. I clear my throat.
If you don’t mind – my readers have been asking this non-stop…
I trail off, a little nervous about asking a question I know he won't like. But I have to at least try to find out! I know you all desperately want to know, after all.
Murdoc raises an eyebrow.
Spit it out.
There’s been a lot of rumours going around about you and Stuart. Would you mind letting my readers know if any of it is true?
Murdoc freezes up and grimaces. He pulls himself together, then straightens his hair down.
No. It isn’t.
I’m not certain if I should do what I do next. But I’ve got to keep going, for the sake of a scoop. After all, my readers are depending on me.
It’s just that… some reports have been going around. March 19th, 2005. Sound familiar?
Murdoc growls at me. Then he looks in the other direction. The camera follows his gaze, to see Russel, Noodle, and Stuart completely ignoring the interview.
Would you look at that? I’ve got to get going!
He starts walking off, seeming in a bit of a hurry.
Thanks so much for the questions, love, hope the article goes well! I’ll be off now!
He runs off screen, and the camera turns off.
