'''Dog Fashion Disco''' was an [[Alternative Metal]] band from Rockville, Maryland. Under their original name, 'Hug the Retard', they formed in 1996 by vocalist Todd Smith, keyboardist Jeff Siegel and drummer John Ensminger. According to [[Word of God]], they changed their name because they thought it was too offensive and could cost them fans. Between then and their final show in 2007, they released seven albums (not including the EPs or live albums). Their subject matter included witches, lepers, [[Serial Killer|serial killers]], [[Religion of Evil|evil]] [[Cult|cultscult]]s... You get the idea.
 
After they broke up, Todd Smith announced a new project, Polkadot Cadaver, which has a similar style to Dog Fashion Disco. They have released two albums; ''Purgatory Dance Party'' and ''Sex Offender''.

=== Dog Fashion Disco provides examples of: ===
* [[A Good Name for Aa Rock Band]]: Though it's subverted for those who think their music is actually disco.
* [[All Just a Dream]]...OrWasItADream: The lyrics in the 'elevator music' part of ''The Hitchhiker''. Subverted within the remainder of the song.
* [[Black Comedy]]: The lyrical content. Todd Smith's later projects kept this aspect.
* [[Careful Withwith That Axe]]: The bridge of ''The Darkest Days''. "You remind me of the flowers...on...your...GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE!"
* [[Concept Album]]: ''Adultery'', which is about a seemingly normal guy with a normal job and a normal family life...who's actually a serial killer with split personalities.
* [[Hell Hotel]]: ''Vertigo Motel''.
