Sacred Heart Of Jesus, b'y!

So, this is our maiden voyage; our foray into pointless, derivative, and(most importantly) inane blogging, where we will inundate you with information about shows, releases, our favourite colours, and pretty much anything we can fill up an entry with.

I'd like to take a moment and discuss the naming of a band. Some folks get it down in the first try, no questions asked. Others, not quite so easy. While we weren't exactly gnashing our teeth when it came to settling on a name, we came up with a few good ones. Two, in particular that we really liked, both with reasons pro et contra. However, much like Seal, Madonna, Sade, or Samwell, we could only choose one. We chose 'Floods', which is a pretty cool name. So cool, in fact, that aside from the eighty-thousand people using the name because it was that cool, there were another forty-million who were Pantera fans, and nothing against Pantera(y'all know we're cowboys from hell at heart), but we decided to leave the name to a legion of those who truly understand Phil Anselmo's pain.

So, we deliberated, and stuck it out with Black Faxes. Yeah, another Black _____ band. If you're truly hip, I won't need to explain what a 'black fax' is, but I think you're beautiful and unique regardless, so here goes: A prank facsimile transmission, named after the black loop of paper that you send to a mark(usually corporations or whomever) in order to tie up their fax lines, and ultimately waste the toner, ink, and/or paper in their fax machines.

We're hoping to record in the next week or so, which means we'll be posting some tracks on our myspace, and ultimately making the demo available for all who choose to download it, or buy a copy at shows.

That's all for now.
