I feel it’s relevant in a thread discussing how the name of a band can reflect the type of music it plays to give an example of a band that does the exact opposite. I felt that by showing a band which defied that expected relationship, I was reinforcing the argument that such a relationship can be expected and therefore exists.
Sorry if I spoiled your fun by actually thinking about the topic of the thread.
You do realize there’s another whole thread on that topic, cited in the OP, that inspired this one? There really wasn’t a need to point that out in this thread.
With all due respect, your post mostly looks like you didn’t read the OP or the other thread.
Yes, please let’s keep this thread on topic. Not only do we already have another thread that preceded this one on exactly the topic you were posting on, but the OP linked to it.
My first thought on reading the thread title was a name literally sounding like the sound they make, like Wang Chung. There must be a few more onomatopoeic Wang Chungs out there.
The name combines the German for “battering ram” (literally “ramming stone”) and the name of the Ramstein air force base where the famous airshow disaster took place.
Even if you didn’t know that, could a band called Rammstein possibly sound any different than this?
