On Thorns I Lay - too long and clunky. Threnos is a better name. They should've switched, and named the album "On Thorns I Lay".
Except...25 years ago

I saw that there was a post in the "updated topics", I did not remember/know the existence of this thread. Before I clicked, I thought "damn, On Thorns I Lay is the most ridiculously awful I can think of" (especially given the fact that their music is great). And I come here and see that you wrote this.

It's actually a clever name. It is a wordplay about the town where the band comes from.

Not lame but shallow and idiotic: Holocaust
Seriously?! How dare you guys to call your lame heavy metal band that?!
it never bothered me and they are not a lame band at all. Never thought of it as idiotic either.

So better to think twice before making such an uneducated choice and giving them thumbs up! They're absolutely shallow and idiotic.
What makes you think it was an uneducated choice? And why should we practice self-censorship when oftentimes the most productive form of overcoming past trauma is to actually engage and process what happened instead of sweeping it under the rug and pretending it doesn't exist.
It's not like they're advocating for another Holocaust or promoting the ideas that led to that event.

If the term accepts multiple definitions (burnt offering, destruction, etc...), you don't get to decide which applies nor discard other meanings. All are valid.
Not to mention that it was already used before the 40' to describe mass murder (Armenians come to mind...).
And the band doesn't make reference at all to that specific event.
So it is a bit hard to follow the logic behind your argument.
Good band btw.

The point is that their lyrical themes have nothing to do at all with the Holocaust and consequences, using a word with the former semantic for their commercial band, it's quite trivializing a huge historical event that had the power to even change the semantic of a word. The signifier and signified are changed after the Holocaust, and using it mindlessly for something commercial is quite invalidating the ongoing trauma of millions.
I get your point but I don't think the band ever did what you accuse them of here. I have listened to this band for quite some time and WW2 and The Holocaust never came to my mind or them being disrespectful in any way. And I am a bit of a history buff.

You're making a mountain out of a molehill here. I appreciate that you always seem to be able to take offense on behalf of everyone else in the world but I don't think this is a hill anyone cares enough about to die on.

Wow that's really bad answer! I see I'm completely in a wrong space! I MEAN I don't even expect much here! But I thought there's a chance to follow a talk a bit more civilized!
So long!
Uncivilized? We're literally having a discussion about lame band names and most of us are just disagreeing with your opinion and stating our reasons why we disagree. If that's considered uncivilized then you're gonna have a bad time on the internet.

Not the lamest, but I always thought the name Evilfeast was terribly lame.
Also King Dude it sounds like a terrible american teenage stoner movie from the early 2000s

It's getting hard to make a day on this site without reading about nazis
Make Me A Donut (djent band). Among bands I like there's Hardcore Anal Hydrogen (experimental hardcore), Savatage (I guess it should be Sabotage?), Shok Paris, and Virgin Steele I never got. What is steele? there's also surely a pun with Virgin Still.
