Bill Manspeaker is Green Jelly!
Green Jelly is……………………….Why don't you, sit right back, And I, I may tell you, a tale. A tale of a sucky Band, And a big, bad, Manspeakerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Welcome to the Official Green Jelly Museum/Archive Page.
Green Jelly was formed back in 1981 in Buffalo New York by Bill Manspeaker, with the goal of being the World’s Worst Band! The goal was to mask the lack of talent with an over the top show full of wild and crazy characters, props, and punk rock puppets, that would make you forget about the lack of talent. Due to pressure Kraft Foods, Green Jello changed their name to Green Jelly in the early 90’s, however the pronunciation was still the same.
Notable Album Releases are:
Let it Be
Triple Live Mother Goose at Budokan
Cereal Killer
333
Musick to Insult Your Intelligence By
Garbage Band Kids
Green Jelly holds the Guiness World Book of Records for the most band members… ever… with well over 1000 members worldwide. Our goal here at GreenJellyMuseum.com is preserve and share artifacts and historical items that span the lifetime of Green Jelly. Nothing in the archive is for sale, but there will be a section for Merchandise and collectibles that are available for purchase. So sit back… relax…and enjoy…the History Of Green Jelly… through a virtual museum of history.

Antiseen (often stylized as ANTiSEEN) is an American Punk Rock band formed in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was formed in 1983 by Jeff Clayton (vocals) and Joe Young (guitar), the band has become one of the longest-running and most infamous punk acts to emerge from the Southeast.
Self-described as the “Destructo Rock” band, Antiseen built a reputation for blending hardcore punk energy with southern rock grit, often incorporating shocking theatrics such as barbed wire, broken glass, and blood into their live performances. Their confrontational stage presence earned them both notoriety and a fiercely loyal cult following across the underground punk and hardcore scenes.
Over the decades, Antiseen has released dozens of albums, EPs, and split records, working with independent punk labels worldwide. They are also notable for their collaborations with artists such as GG Allin, further cementing their place in punk history.
Despite never achieving mainstream commercial success, Antiseen’s influence has been deeply felt in the underground, inspiring generations of punk, hardcore, and extreme rock musicians. Their longevity, DIY ethic, and refusal to compromise continue to make them a cornerstone of North Carolina’s music legacy.
