Line 109:
* The Subdigitals of ''[[Code Lyoko]]'' (known as the "Subsonics" in Season 2, but renamed as there was already a real band with that name) not only have a pretty heavy presence in the series proper, but an actual album released in English and French. It's above-average French pop, though it is worth note that the English release is not so much a "translation" as a complete rewrite with varying levels of success. The song "S'envoler/Break Away" is adapted from the show's ending theme, and it and "Planet Net" are featured in the episode "Music to Soothe the Savage Beast."
* [[Gorillaz]], an animated band fronting for a group of real musicians.
 
=== Actual bands ===
* The [[wikipedia:Ohio Express|Ohio Express]] were more of a record company's marketing identity than a real band, and consisted of whatever musicians were available at the time. [[The Eagles|Joe Walsh]] is suspected to have been a member of an early version, and the final version eventually became the "classic" lineup of 10cc.
