* FaceOnTheCover: Of ''Progression Towards Evil''...with the members sporting nooses around their necks and holding their heads at odd angles to simulate hanging victims.

Added DiffLines:

* NamedLikeMyName: RealLife example with Dave, who quickly stopped finding amusement in all the jokes about his name and [[Music/DaveMatthewsBand its obvious comparison point]]. The other members found the jokes just as grating, though, and started trolling the fans until most of them figured it out and stopped doing it.

* {{Jerkass}}: The band takes this role in the "Skull Session" video, seeming indifferent at best to the problems they're causing to Hippie Jim. Sherwood in particular appears to be straying into sadism, as he goes out of his way to flip off Jim and scream in his face when he comes over to complain about the noise from their rehearsals.

Second try at removing non-existant trope entry


* GoryIndiscretionShot: If there's an opportunity for one in a music video, you can bet they'll take the opportunity. One example is the end of "Skull Session", which features an extended close-up of Hippie Jim[[spoiler: 's neck after his self-decapitation, complete with fluids dripping from the tops of his trachea, esophagus and major blood vessels. (Although there's no fluid coming out of his spinal column, when [[ArtisticLicenseAmatomy there probably should be]].)]]

* BewareTheNiceOnes: In the music video for "Skull Session", Hippie Jim is depicted as dinging pretty much every stereotype on the [[TheHippie aging hippie]] checklist...until the band completely destroys his life with their endless rehearsals. He then reveals that [[spoiler: he's also a frontline Vietnam veteran]], and has a stash of "goodies" [[spoiler: from his service, including a canister of Agent Orange and several grenades.]] He uses a selection of implements from his stash to incapacitate and capture the band, then builds a guillotine to dispose of them for good. [[spoiler: Well, almost...]]
