I don't know, but your post inspired two thoughts.

1) Your name always makes me think of Thomas Merton.
2) "Fetal Bovine Serum" WBAGNFAB and Google seems to think it's
related to a.r.k somehow.

Speaking of accordions, any band containing Weird Al Yankovic.

How could you forget the Drowsy Drivers?

Trotsky Icepick, in addition to scientific musings like The Ultra-Violet
Catastrophe, sang about Brian Wilson's fear of his father's glass eye and
the urban legend of a pet bunny raised from the grave on Easter morning.
Life in a Blender (quoted below) memorialized in song Nicola Tesla's feud
with that "Asshole from Menlo Park," and a dancing chicken of Chinatown.

Also of scientific bent are Peter Hammill and Van der Graaf Generator,
and Flop, who sang about Mendel's White Trash Laboratory.

On principles of general wackiness, never forget the Dead Milkmen. In a
similar vein but with more conspiracy theories was Spot 1019.

We would make baby Nick Bensema cry if we forgot the Minibosses and their
covers of 8-bit Atari music. And speaking of minis, we can't leave out
the feuding MiniKiss and Tiny Kiss.
