In 1981, director Gerald Potterton, producers Ivan Reitman and Leonard Mogel, along with a murderers' row of animators and voice actors, came together to make the adult animation anthology sci-fi/fantasy film Heavy Metal. It all came together to build a wild and imaginative view of the future, the past, and far-off planets, and swiftly became a cult classic for anyone interested in the art of animation, the art of creating fantastical worlds, and the art of, uhh, alien sex. In one memorable sequence from Heavy Metal's segment "Taarna," a mute warrior woman dressed in what's basically bondage gear arrives on the back of a giant bird and brawls with a bevy of barbarian soldiers, slicing their heads off with a swing of her sword. In another, from "So Beautiful and So Dangerous," a buxom Pentagon stenographer is abducted by a starship and convinced to have sex with a robot.

Everyone has their own definition of "boy band," so this is mine, made to govern this list: It must consist of three or more male-identifying persons in a personality-focused singing group. The Jackson 5, The Beatles, The Temptations -- do not count here simply because the modern idea of a "boy band" wasn't a cultural framework yet.
