Godspeed You! Black Emperor!
...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead
I am the World Trade Center
Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin
I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness
Pretty Girls Make Graves
I Live the Life of a Movie Star Secret Hideout
Congratulations on Your Decision to Become a Pilot

They actually took the title of a Smiths song and used it as their name. Which Morrissey lifted from the dharma bums. Oh and none of those bands are emo.

Ahh...but do you know where the Smiths got their name from?

sleepy jack · 08-08-2007, 05:48 PM

I have no idea, I saw in an interview Morrissey said something like "I decided to call ourselves "the smiths, because it was the most ordinary name I could think of, and I think it's time that the ordinary folk of the world showed their faces." or something along those lines. But I don't know if thats right because the interview was conducted by school children and he also said This Charming Man was just about being charming.

look the fact that NAMBLA exists and that they're foolish enough to think the law protecting them is a victory will know the punishing speed and power of vigilante justice. Letting things out into the light often times is better than suppressing them. You don't think the feds are watching that site like a hawk. They record everyone who goes there.

How about Fun-Man-Shu-Bert

It has been suggested he named the band after David Smith, the man who informed the police after witnessing a murder (moors murders) committed by Ian Brady.
As you know, Morrissey had a fascination with the case from being a young lad growing up in Manchester.

Yeahh he wrote a bunch of songs about it not just Suffer Little Children there was a few in his solowork, but none were as direct (or good.)

Talking about disturbing names! Azuryn is a better than the latter though.
