Archers of Loaf for me. How does one become an archer of a loaf?

I hate to say it because they're a band I love, but Skinny Puppy is a pretty dumb name for a band.

I read in a magazine interview article with their guitarist Dan Estrin that Hoobastank was actually their Finnish bass players middle name. I've also read a whole bunch other stories that apparently came from other band members so I'm not sure how much truth there is to that, but that's one story.

The Band.

I like the band, but why The Band?

Are you planning on saying this on every page of this thread?

^Maybe they figured it would give them absolute representation. Instead of being just a band...they would be The Band.

Anal Cunt(and pretty much 90% of the other grind bands out there)
Blues Traveller (now don't get me wrong...I absolutely love Blues Traveller...but what does that mean?)
Bullet for My Valentine (come on....can't we get a little more creative than that?)
Crossfade (it can mean one of two things....which one is it...)
Death Cab For Cutie (WTF!?!?!?!)
Gwen Stacy (Like the music....the name could be better....unless it has some underlying meaning)

Isn't that the name of the girlfriend that was murdered in the Spiderman comics? There's your underlying meaning I guess.

^I didn't know that.....




I'm gonna look that up.

EDIT: yeah.....turns out that's correct.
