No disrespect but ...

It was after this concert that three of their fans, Phillip Alexander, and Gavin and Karen Easthope were killed in a car accident.

I'm afraid this information simply doesn't belong in an encyclopedia. Over 3000 people were killed in road accidents in the UK in 2004 and we can't mention them all. Unless there is a citation indicating that this incident was somehow significant to the bands history (beyond the natural sympathy it would engender) I'm afraid I will have to remove it.

OK. Waited for other opinions and went ahead with the edit Slinky Puppet 21:19, 24 August 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Redundant

"The band's first three albums were stoner/doom metal. On 2002's Coup de Grace they began to add punk, doom metal, and other influences to their sound."

Well the doom metal influence was already in there first three releases, how could they have began to have added doom metal influence with Coup de Grace? A bit contradictory/redundant imo. 174.21.36.54 (talk) 09:03, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Heavy Metal

I've changed Stoner Metal to heavy metal because now they have done more heavy metal albums than stoner ones (4 heavy metal and 3 stoner metal), so I think it would be more correct to say "Heavy Metal", right?

Origin of the name

Hi there, I came here to learn the origin of the band's name. It wasn't here, but I found this online: "They 'wanted to have a colour in the band [name], because all [their] heroes had colours in their names, like Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Blue Cheer, Black Sabbath'. And the Goblin, 'came about because [they] were seriously into (JRR Tolkien's) The Lord of the Rings'." ^[1] I don't think the site is authoritative, so I'm putting it here on the talk page until someone can find the origin in a better site.
