Supagroup Gets Amped

[NSFW] Rock band Supagroup has new album, Hail! Hail!, and a new marketing strategy: They’re going to be YouTube stars. Chris and Benji Lee have written and star in the online comedy series Amped, which tells the story of what happened between their previous album, 2007’s Fire for Hire, and now. The pilot was directed by Anthony Dominici, who has produced such reality television series as America’s Next Top Model and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Here is the debut of the series; a new episode will be posted next Tuesday.
