On LAist, I read about this all-male heavy metal band from Seattle called Lesbian. Why Lesbian? Because "the name Lesbian evokes pure, sexually-charged freedom -- and, that's what rock music is all about." That is so kick ass.
I looked up their MySpace page to see if I could find out anything more about them. They consider themselves to be "part of the new wave of American psychedelic metal." I will have to get with The Sister for some schooling on these fine musical distinctions, as she is the metalhead in the family.
You can listen to Lesbian samples on their MySpace page. I also clicked through to an interview with them and found this exchange:
Soooooo why did you choose the name Lesbian to represent the band?
Because having sex with women is awesome!
So true lads, so true. Hey guys, can I get a Lesbian t-shirt?

Are you serious? I don't want people to look at these big fat hairy guys and think that's what we look like because we don't.

Well, I know many people think all lesbians are ugly and mannish but I don't know if they'd really believe the band members are lesbian. Then again, you never know.
