Cobra Starship
As the legend of Cobra Starship would have it, frontman Gabe Saporta fled into the deserts of Arizona one day to find the true meaning of his existence away from his emo-rock band, Midtown. Cobra Starship was born...uh, back in New York. Taking their name from words written on the backs of Saporta's favorite vintage jackets, the band burst onto the scene with the uber-catchy dance-pop-rock of "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)." The song -- which featured Saporta alongside Maja Ivarsson (the Sounds), Travis McCoy (Gym Class Heroes), and William Beckett (The Academy Is...) -- was the lead track off the remix-heavy soundtrack for August 2006's horror comedy, Snakes on a Plane, starring Samuel. L. Jackson.
