An Examination of The Different Broods (aka Elliott Brood Giveaway)

The Brood was a group of wrestlers who teamed up together during the late 90s in the then-WWF. Gangrel, Edge and Christian were followers of a vampiric clan who came to the ring while the arena was dark, rising from the stage through a ring of fire. They regularly utilized evil methods to get a win, such as interfering in matches while the referee was distracted and drenching thier opponents with a large bucket of blood. They used thier underhanded tactics to try and one-up good, rule-abiding wrestlers such as Owen Hart, Al Snow and The Hardy Boys.

They are bad.



The Brood is a race of alien insects found in the Marvel Comics universe. Alien-esque in appearance and reproductive methods, they live in a hive that spans thier planet and follow thier Queen unquestioningly. Said Queen has led them into battle with Ms. Marvel and caused the infection of most of the X-Men with parasitic Brood-spawn on numerous occasions.

They are bad as well.


Elliott Brood is an alternative country band, currently from Toronto but including two members who grew up in Windsor. Thier last album, Mountain Meadows, blends the band's proficiency for fun, fast country with indie-rock like production and attention to artful song arangement. It was nominated for a Juno Award and is currently on the list for this year's Polaris Music Prize.

They are good.
