Captured! by Robots

GWAR disembowels the president and the pope in crimson geysers of Kool-Aid blood. 50 Cent sports custom Kevlar and a 9-mm slur. Britney toys with her coy Lolita smile and unholy tatters. Captured! By Robots has, uh, robots. As gimmicks go, C!BR has cornered the market on three-robot, two-ape, one-man bands. Now the apocalyptic Chuck E. Cheese ensemble has gone one step further with the “10 Commandments Tour,” a musical adaptation of the Chuck Heston flick complete with hip-hop, funk and death-metal interpretations of the chaos that ensues when pharaohs are implored to let people go. Not that the old formula (man-builds-musical-robots, robots-enslave-man-by-implanting-a-biocerebral-chip-in-his-brain, robots-and-keytar-strumming-man-in-bondage-mask-go-on-tour) was really growing stale.
