Hats off to King The Kid. The relatively unknown trio from Oregon became an overnight YouTube sensation when their spoof of Miley Cyrus“Wrecking Ball” video went viral. And for good reason. Their clip is hilarious — the long-haired dude with the hammer kills me — and extremely well-executed.

But that’s not the most impressive thing. The band actually does a really good job of transforming Miley’s power ballad into a perky pop/rock song. Hopefully “Wrecking Ball” opens doors for King The Kid. Watch their mildly NSFW-video up top.
