(Radio.com) Say hi-dilly-ho to the world's first and -- let's be honest -- only Ned Flanders-themed metal (or, "nedal") band in existence. Okilly Dokilly, the Fresh Outta Springfield metal band (actually out of Phoenix, Arizona) are truly one of a gosh darn kind, and just performed their first show in their home town last month.

The members of Okilly Dokilly even dress like the character, right down to the circle-framed specs, and also call each other Ned. They are so committed, they even describe their sound within the Simpson's world. Read more here.
