** Mandoki has been called "[[{{WesternAnimation/Metalocalypse}} Murderface]]".
** Potgieter has been referred to as "Mister Disco" (in addition to "Dancing Santa Jesus") after a line in the bufflaxed version of Moskau, which [[YouDontLookLikeYou causes confusion]] when he wears something different besides his iconic [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DQrmFBWsssw/hqdefault.jpg costume]], like his cowboy costume when the group performs "Pistolero".
** The band itself is usually called "Russian Power Rangers" thanks to their colorful outfits. "German Power Rangers" if people are aware that they are a German band, not a Russian one.
