Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem was based on anyone. Frank Oz performed Animal from his first appearance until 2000; in 2002 newcomer Eric Jacobson took over. In Muppet Babies, he was voiced by Howie Mandel (1984–1985) and by Dave Coulier (1986–1991). Animal was also played by Kevin Clash in "Muppets Tonight" and by Bill Barretta in "MuppetFest" (the first Muppet fan convention). Animal's drumming was performed by British jazz and big band drummer Ronnie Verrell. He has had numerous appearances on television in advertising and even on a U.S. postage stamp. Floyd Pepper is the bass player. A laid back hipster with a pink body
Mayhem (band) have given these necklaces to musicians he deemed worthy, which was confirmed by several other members of the scene, like Bård 'Faust' Eithun and Metalion. Dead's suicide affected Necrobutcher so much that he left Mayhem, thinning the band's ranks down to two. The group performed for a short time thereafter with Occultus, joining the band to begin recording vocal and bass tracks in Mayhem's debut album, "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas". However, this was short-lived; he left the band after receiving a death threat from Euronymous. In July 1993, "Live in Leipzig" was released as the band's tribute to Dead. In
