They've just come off The Late Late Show and they've given their (in)famous humour to the nation, but they've gone further-afield than that. The lads recently did an interview, after their roaring success, to MTV in America. Seriously.
The website, which contained an interview (included below) stated that there was a translation for those who are not Irish. And, it's gas.
CNN wonder have we lost our minds, where MTV embrace it.
Kudos, Bandits.
Please list the benefits of horse-having.
It's easier to get your hole, number 1.
Number 2. If you're scared of ghosts it'doesn't'even matter because ghosts are scared of horses.'And number 3, you can tell a car's age by its mileage, which you can't really do nothing about. But with a horse, you can tell its age by the amount of teeth in its mouth. So, if you have an old horse, just feed it loads of sweets until its all teeth fall out so you can tell a prospective buyer that your horse is zero years of age.
The world wants to know'who's the babe in your 'Horse Outside' video?
I dunno, some Polish bird that we won against in a game of darts. I'd ask her what her name is, if she'd only stop chewing the jaws off herself.'(Translation: 'if only she'd lay off the speedy drugs').
How did you get a church to agree to the shooting?
If you give any priest a thousand Euros these days they'd shoot anyone. It's just lucky for Derek Davis that this priest had a sh** aim. How'd ye find out about that anyway?
You've got elusive singles all over the net. Where can we get a compilation of your stuff?
Good question, I really should ask our manager about sorting that out.
If your campaign works, what will you do if you hit number 1 on iTunes?
Do a load of speed and fall into a river.
What's your favorite part about Limerick?
The part where Al Pacino says 'you can't handle any truth' and then an anvil lands on the top of his head. Mad bastards.
Did the Subaru in your video really get robbed? What happened?
It was confiscated. It's owned by our friend Cannibal Corbett. He put a crown of thorns onto the Subaru like what they done to our Lord. and the Garda' ('police') took it off him until he learns how to cop on to ('check') himself.
Be honest'is there glue in that bag on your face? Do you ever change that thing? Do you prefer a certain brand of shopping bag?
No, no and ya.
Who would win in a fight, Das Racist, Ali G, Two Door Cinema Club, or a Mitzy?
I've haven't'heard of any of those teams so probably the car.
Would you ever consider showing all your adoring fans who you really are?
No, because it would be damaging to the career of our father', Brendan'Gleeson.
Did you name your duo after the patented product in'this video?
I came up with the name Rubberbandits when I was taking a shower at the age of 16. So that means that your man who owns that product was watching a 16-year-old boy having a shower. It might just be a coincidence'as well I dunno.
What's next for Rubberbandits?
We're buying a hot air balloon and flying over'Cork, so we can call it a fool.
