All the King's Men! is a band consisting of The Poopsmith (vocals), The Blacksmith (drums), The Hornblower (saxophone), and The Knight (upright bass). Ironically, the lead "vocalist" is a character that is known for never speaking or making a sound.

They wear snappy blue tuxedo jackets, and were seen playing for a Senior Prom in Free Country, USA. At a glance, they resemble Marvin Berry & The Starlighters from Back to the Future I and II.

The band's name refers to the line in the nursery rhyme Humpty Dumpty; "All the king's horses and all the king's men." The joke conveyed by this name is that all the members of the band work for The King of Town. (Despite claiming to be "All the King's Men", The Little Chef Guy and The Bishop are absent.) The name also likely refers to The Kingsmen, the Washington-state band who recorded the most popular version of the song "Louie Louie" in the 1960s.

Trivia

  • The Blacksmith appears to be left handed, since the snare drum is on the right hand side of the drum set.
