He was the lead singer of an Australian band called the Galvatrons in the 2000s.
I believe that's his stage name.
The Galvatrons are named for like a Transformers character.
So I think it's not his real name, but maybe he like adopted his stage name.
Anyway, his name is Johnny Galvatron.
There's kind of all these layers of artifice around this game.
This is what I wrote about and how for a long time I was kind of...
just okay with that.
I was like, well, this game is kind of weird.
It's not set in a real place.
It doesn't feel that believable.
The music doesn't totally make sense.
But also it's like kind of weirdly Australian.
Like I actually like having Australians tell me about their favorite bands.
It's like something that I spend a lot of time doing.
So it's kind of a fun part of the game.
And I guess the one thing I'll say that I should mention here in my one more thing is that what wound up being kind of the central realization in my writing about this game was that I figured out that some of the songs on Stacey's playlist actually aren't real songs.
And I thought that was actually kind of weird.
It was a creative decision that I don't love.
There are just bands that I'm not sure what they are.
