Band Name Origins:

According to a friend who knew them before they got big, Crystal Method wanted to have a name that stood for something rebellious or offensive, but sounded innocent. They thought of various drug names and eventually decided on "Crystal Meth". However, they didn't want to simply be named after a drug, and eventually the letters "o" and "d" were added, which are an acronym for Overdose (crystal-meth-overdose). They have also stated that the name makes their group sound more eclectic and deep. Submitted by: BLIMP84
According to an interview with Scott and Ken (which, if I recall correctly, was printed in the liner notes of one of their albums), they both had a crush on a girl named Crystal, who was causing them some heartbreak. They told this to one of their friends, who was a rapper, and he said, "ahhh, the Crystal method." They liked it so much they adopted it. Despite what many people think, it has nothing to do with methamphetamines. Submitted by: JazzDuck

Stupid Band Names:

I bought "crystal method" thinking I would try to lose weight listening to it. I didn't. I did however loose lots of sleep and thus, my job. I got hooked on it after a couple of uses, and it gave me unsightly blemishes! Submitted by: Mitch
