Band Name Origins:

  • Yeah, we (heard of) all that women-sex-stuff, but here's the story behind that: The church in mediaeval times wanted to explain sexual dreams that way so the "victims" didn't have to be punished for sinning. That's it. Submitted by: The lucky one
  • Brandon Boyd actually did refer to his nightly emissions of inspiration like a Succubus coming to extract his soul, and the name just sounded pretty good. Submitted by: Elle

Why the Name is Stupid:

  • Why would you name your band after a greek mytholigic demon that preys on woman while the sleep to have sexual intercourse with them? That is just plain creepy. Submitted by: Travis
  • They named themselves after the guy version of a succubus. Dirty minds. Submitted by: Mike
  • Sounds like a really bad disease you get from UV exposure Submitted by: Mac
  • Sounds like something you would keep chicken eggs in. Submitted by: Emily
