But it's better than a generic name like "Wolves In Sheepskin"? Oh look! You changed a word to make it sound vaguely subversive. Brilliant!

When he left we figured that it must have been one of our better tracks to befuddle Frownland Sr. We were right.
^ That track has some great distorted guitar in it, but I can sympathize with your Dad too.
While I was on the YouTube page, I checked out your Kivah cover and it was very interesting to witness the real, unadorned Frownland at work. Great stuff!

You just want me to ditch the name because you want to steal it for the BDSM porn you're producing. I had always thought it was sheepskin anyway and I like the dirty connotations. You. Can't. Have.

The Units is so unoriginal of a band name even Jandek started off with that as his monicker.
