okey, im about to start a grindcore/noice band but we were thinking of the name "Geneticly engienered bodies (like clones)"
(proberly misspeled that by the way...)
but maybe a drummachine/bass/screaming thing under the name Scotophobic aint a bad idea...
("Yes we are so evil!..but please keep the nightlamp on will you?...")
