    Creative controle to messiah J & the expert is another recent one.
    I think babelfish changed their name cause they found out some scandinavian band had the name before them.

    Weird coincidense!!

    Babelfish and blotooth have the same management as far as I know....

    I think blotooth were asked to change their name by Sony (Who they're now signed to in the UK). My sister tells me that 'blo' means 'crack cocaine' in the states and that's not gonna do them much favours if yunno what I mean.

    Sell outs...

    I thought that was a good name. I remeber reading about it alright on their web site.

    If they just made up some other story it'd be grand. Feckin' suits.
