It started out as a simple joke
Write a cynical review of the next super group album, dropping hints along the way that the review was a fake. But, they misunderestimated the readers. Soon demand for the latest album by The Masked Marauders was reaching fever pitch.

What to do then? Why get your friends together and make the album, which is what happened. And the results weren't that bad!

To read about the entire adventure, from review to the album being cut-out, please see The Masked Marauders: The Whole Story. The links at the bottom are Readers Digest versions; these are the genuine articles, in chronological order.
