Looks Like ‘Starfucker’ Is Now ‘Pyramid’
October 14th, 2009
Is this newsworthy? To me it is.
.
Was perusing the ol’ myspace and stumbled upon this little nugget: Starfucker is now Pyramid [PYRAMID---all caps may be required]. Most likely. I like it, although it does evoke a decidedly different emotion and image than its predecessor. ‘Starfucker’ is a [high voice] happy, fun, carefree hot mess, where ‘Pyramid’ is a [low voice] giant behemoth of impending wonder and icey intrigue. The rainbow pyramid is a nice compromise, though.
.
Update: Line Out has the press release. Also, the new website is: www.pyramidlovesyou.com. A cursory search of the web reveals this name to be decidedly not unique. Oh well.

You’ll recall the band recently decided to change its name.

Hmm, I don’t know. I kinda wish they would have just kept their name. Be a little punk rock about it all. It sounds like they were losing money over it. I know the kids these days don’t have as many issues over selling out and as I haven’t paid for an album in a real long time, I think artists gotta do what they gotta do (don’t tell Ian Mackaye I said that), but it just seems off to me.

Yeah, I think disappointment would have come with whatever name they chose. The change from Starfucker itself, which is obviously the better name, is the “worst” part. Josh says he doesn’t wanna be poor, though, so I get it.

So, the dudes might’ve tweaked it to now be: PYRAMIDDD. With all those D’s. At least now it’s easier to Google.
