    Soundgarden and Nine Inch Nails are killer names for bands.

    Live is a pain in the arse name. Try searching for them on line.

    I've noticed this before. The band that is commonly considered the greatest of all time has a name with an awful pun haha.

    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
