‘Look, guys, we need a really good name. We’ve got our image nailed so we look exactly like Good Charlotte, and the typeface, too, nicked from the Fastball album. So we need a killer name for the band – y’know, something that’s attention-grabbing, says we’re here, we’re hard and we’re gonna rock it in spadefuls.’
‘Yeah, how about Fists of Fury?’
‘Nah, been done. Too obvious. Not hard-hitting enough. We need something really in yer face....’
‘Sledgehammer Bastards?’
‘It’s got a ring to it... I like the image of, y’know, tools, ‘cause they’re metal and hard-hitting, and a swearword is always good for getting attention!’
‘What about Cuntsaws?’
‘Er...’
‘I’ve got it! Fuckshovel!’
‘Yeah! Genius!’
It’s a pity, because their brand of fast-paced, chug-heavy punk-edged metal, a shade reminiscent of post-’Nurse’ Therapy? ain’t bad.
