Richard Cheese and Lounge Against The Machine perform swankified lounge arrangements of rock, pop, R&B and hip-hop tunes. No genre of music is safe from their novelty cocktail mixes. Lounge covers have existed well before Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. first started singing their way through lounge music, lush ladies and long martinis. Richard Cheese & Lounge Against The Machine are the latest group to adopt the over-used concept of lounge covers, which consistently proves to be a winning formula.

Richard Cheese opened the night at the Red Devil Lounge with "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails. Audience members got into full swing and were treated to new lounge arrangements of Kelis' "Milkshake", Outkast's "Hey Ya!" and Slayer's "War Ensemble". Richard Cheese's persona is slightly sleazy yet his comedic gags are aided by hardcore lyrics and plenty of musical alterations. Highlights from the live performance included boob signing, indecent proposals and the pledge of allegiance to Dick Cheese. The audience joined in a copyright act pledge that anyone purchasing his album should not digitally copy, upload or download any of his music. Although Richard Cheese has no original material, Lounge Against The Machine proved themselves to be accomplished musicians with style and sophistication. During his highly demanded encore performance, Richard Cheese sung Lords Of Acid's "Pussy" into the not-so-innocent ears of unsuspecting female members of the audience. The lounge singer dedicated the final song of the night to Kobe Bryant, performing "Rape Me" by Nirvana. Richard Cheese & Lounge Against The Machine produce a hilarious show that you'll never forget.

On their latest album "I'd Like A Virgin", all tracks are arranged, performed and loungified by Richard Cheese & Lounge Against The Machine. It features eighteen hits from the 80's, 90's and today, including Vegas versions of Snoop Dogg's "Gin And Juice", Jet's "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?", Crazy Town's "Butterfly", Michael Jackson's "Beat It" and Green Day's "Longview". Richard Cheese's third album has guest appearances from Dick Clark, Carson Daly and Howard Stern. The CD even includes secret bonus tracks, rare live recordings and radio show interviews. Their music is essential for all lounge lovers, and something that every music fan should give a once-over. If you enjoy novelty cover songs, you'll want to hear music from Dick Brave & The Backbeats, Pat Boone, and Weird Al Yankovic.
