Your error was the spelling of the daubings. And if I were a 'cultist', I'd have replicated what they actually wrote.
The name implies an adolescent interest in a 1969 cult killing that has arguably received far more than its fair share of attention. To me, a band that adopts a 'Mansonite' name suggests that its members are immature fanboys and that their music is probably derivative of various styles of music popular in the late sixties/early seventies. This may not be the truth (and I've never heard Kasabian, or Mansun, or Marilyn Manson) but there's a lot of music out there to explore and giving a band a 'faux controversial' name is giving me an excuse to ignore it.
I've never consciously heard them, but that's exactly what I'd expect them to sound like on the basis of their name.
This really is the worst band name I’ve ever heard. I thought it was gross in the 90s and it’s even worse to hear now. How did no one in that band veto the name?
FFfRV had the best back to an album jacket EVER. Music inside the grooves not bad either. Bad band name.... Lynyrd Skynyrd comes to mind
I always loved the story behind Lynyrd Skynyrd. He was the gym coach that tormented them in High School. Skynard (the man) went on to pursue a career in real estate and even appeared with Skynard (the band) at concerts.
There were many novelty songs on the AM charts in the late sixties and early seventies and this would have fit right in. Ironically and humorously as you probably know, there’s a group named for the song’s title.
