I'm some what ambivalent about the name. As a parent and human I don't like it - and we lost a child in child birth so like Praetorian it kind of sticks in my throat. Having said that I also realise that in some areas of music bands often see it as part of their raison d'etre to be 'controversial' and Smikey makes a good point about the need to judge them musically against others of their genre. Also, like others have pointed out, they aren't the only - or indeed first, band to have a 'controversial' name. However all in all, for me personally, I kind of find the courting controversy thing is a bit childish and lame - if you are really good why do this at all make the headlines on your musical merits instead. But that's just my opinion
 .BTW - it all kind of reminds me of an on-going argument I have with my wife regarding artists like Tracy Emin, The Chapman Brothers etc who are 'controversial'. She argues that we need to prevent our little girl from seeing their works when we take her to art galleries as it raises uncomfortable questions that she is too young to deal with. My take on it is a 'so what' about the subject matter and more is it 'good' or 'bad' art - arguably art is supposed to make us uncomfortable and question ourselves? And if it's bad, well why waste time on it at all? Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
