These guys are the Chirpy Chips. With their sea anemone lead singer and a sparkling electronic sound, this unique four-piece has been setting the Inkopolis Top 40 on fire! Take a listen to their latest single, Shellfie, which is also the background music you’ll be hearing during battles now!

The Chirpy Chips (NA/EU/OC)[a], or ABXY (JP)[b], is a four-person chiptune-style band. Their songs were first added in Template:S' August Update,[2] and two more were released as part of Template:S2' Version 3.0.0.

Songs

Main article: Music

The Chirpy Chip's songs include Shellfie and Split and Splat; both can be heard during multiplayer battles.

Members

  • Vocals/synth: A relaxed sea anemone who goes her own way.[3] Similar to Annie, she has a bright color scheme and a small fish in her "hair". In the band's second album cover, she is shown making music using various Nintendo consoles.
  • Guitar: An uncontrollable, brightly colored Inkling.[3] They have bright purple tentacles styled into large spikes and what appears to be four fangs instead of the typical three.
  • Bass: A shy flapjack octopus who does things at their own pace.[3] Despite being an octopus, they bear little resemblance to Octarians. In both album covers, they wear a shirt referencing Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, but with a squid-shaped prism.
  • Drums: A crab who quietly watches over the others.[3] In the band's first album cover, their shirt design has what could be the Inkling version of ZR.

Trivia

  • The Chirpy Chips are the first band in Splatoon to have their name changed for localization. Their original Japanese name, ABXY, is likely a reference to the A, B, X, and Y buttons on the width=auto Wii U GamePad and other Nintendo controllers.
    • The text on their album art loosely resembles this name.
    • Additionally, the format of their Japanese name is likely a reference to the Japanese chiptune band YMCK, which has a similar style of music.
  • The Heavy Splatling Remix appears to be a Chirpy Chips-themed weapon: it has a sticker on the side with their name in Inkling, its color scheme is similar to that of their album art, and "Remix" may be a reference to their electronic style. However, this connection is never addressed in-game.
  • The Chirpy Chips song Blitz It! was used as the background music for the Nintendo Direct preview for Splatoon 2 Version 3.0.0.
