Soon after, the band's name was revised to Bill Haley & His Comets.

* The Damned-Damned Damned Damned, a limited number of which were deliberately printed with a photo of Eddie and the Hot Rods on the back of the cover, rather than The Damned playing at The Roxy Club, and with an erratum sticker apologising for this " mistake ", and on the front of the LP, on top of the original shrinkwrap, a red food-fight sticker saying ' Damned Damned ', thus completing the LP's title when read underneath the band's name ;

At Capitol's behest, the band's name was changed to Crowded House, which alluded to the lack of space at the West Hollywood apartment they shared during the recording of the album Crowded House.

The band's real name generated controversy.

In 1989 the band's name was changed to Deicide at the request of Roadrunner Records.

This band's name remained that way until his death.

In keeping with the band's satirical nature, each member had a comical name: in addition to Kinky there was Little Jewford, Big Nig, Panama Red, Wichita Culpepper, Sky Cap Adams, Rainbow Colours, and Snakebite Jacobs.

They were still committed to several concerts in Scandinavia, so drummer Jim McCarty and vocalist Keith Relf authorised Page and bassist Chris Dreja to use " The Yardbirds " name to fulfill the band's obligations.

One account of how the new band's name was chosen held that Moon and Entwistle had suggested that the supergroup with Page and Beck would go down like a " lead balloon ", a British idiom for disastrous results.

When his manager informed him that a band by the name of " Bastard " would never get a slot on " Top of the Pops ", Lemmy changed the band's name to " Motörhead " – the title of the last song he had written for Hawkwind.

After modifying the spelling slightly, " Mötley Crüe " was eventually selected as the band's name, with the stylistic decision suggested by Neil to add the two sets of metal umlauts supposedly inspired by the German beer Löwenbräu, which the members were drinking at the time.

The album was originally titled The Dirt, as it was loosely based on the band's autobiography of the same name, but the title was later changed.

Rob Gretton, the band's manager for over twenty years, is credited for having found the name " New Order " in an article in The Guardian entitled " The People's New Order of Kampuchea ".

The band's founding members were Liam Howe and Chris Corner, who then recruited Kelli Dayton ( formerly of Lumieres, now recording under the name Kelli Ali ) for vocal duties and long-time friend Ian Pickering to provide lyrics.

It was with their second album, 1978's More Songs About Buildings and Food that the band began its long-term collaboration with producer Brian Eno, who had previously worked with Roxy Music, David Bowie, John Cale and Robert Fripp ; the title of Eno's 1977 song " King's Lead Hat " is an anagram of the band's name.

In an unpublished memoir, Mars later explained the band's choice of name: " Like maybe the main act doesn't show, and instead the crowd has to settle for an earful of us dirtbags.

Frustrated with the lack of attention they were getting locally, they engaged in a graffiti campaign, with Brown and Wren spraying the band's name on walls from West Didsbury to the city centre.

Rob Crow of the rock band Goblin Cock chose to go by the name " Lord Phallus " during the release of the band's albums.

The only concern held by Ross and Food was that they disliked the band's name.

To keep the " initial " theme of the band's name, Rozonda needed a name starting with C, and so became Chilli, which was coined by Lopes.

Although Holly had already begun to become disillusioned with Norman Petty before meeting Maria Elena, it was through her and her aunt Provi, the head of Latin American music at Peer-Southern, that he began to fully realize what was going on with his manager, who was paying the band's royalties into his own company's account.

However, the band's individualistic style drew from a wide variety of influences, including folk music, which they incorporated into their next two albums.

Though the band's early years were shadowed by the legacy and basic sound of Joy Division, their experience of the early 1980s New York City club scene increased their knowledge of dance music and saw them incorporate elements of that style into their work.

Despite her reservations, Christine complied with the band's touring schedule, and then performed for the group's 1998 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as well as the Grammy Awards show, and the BRIT Awards in the UK.

The Head on the Door reached number seven in the UK and was the band's first entry into American Top 75 at number 59, a success partly due to the international impact of the LP's two singles, " In Between Days " and " Close to Me ".

In 1987, The Cure released the double LP Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, which reached number six in the UK, the Top 10 in several countries and was the band's first entry into the U. S. Top 40 at number 35 ( where it was certified platinum ), due to the combination of the band's rising popularity and the success of lead single, " Why Can't I Be You ?".

None of the band's subsequent singles made it into the Top 40 and several did not chart at all.

While the band's early releases were played in a style closer to traditional punk rock, In God We Trust, Inc. ( 1981 ) marked a shift into hardcore.

When they learned about EMI's 8-track recorder, they insisted on using it, and engineers Ken Scott and Dave Harries took the machine ( without authorisation from the studio chiefs ) into the Number 2 recording studio at Abbey Road for the band's use.

The difficulty of this move also made its way into the lyrics of the band's songs, primarily Speckled Bird.

This album was followed by Love of Life ( recorded by Martin Bisi in 1992 ), and the EP single Love of Life / Amnesia, taking the group even farther into experimentation, and then The Great Annihilator ( 1995 ), considered to be one of the band's most accessible releases, possibly through being their most straightforward.

Come Find Yourself, the band's first album, was released in the summer of 1996 by Capitol Records and followed their single, " The Grave And The Constant " ( UK # 72 ), which was released a month earlier, into the UK Charts.

The album was composed as a retrospective on the band's career, featuring early singles, mid-period b-sides and recent live tracks, illustrating their path from a " tiny L. A. basement studio into alternative rock superstardom ".

The band's emphasis on remakes of their old favorites continued with " Night Time Is the Right Time ," which found its way into the band's live set as a crowd sing-along.
