One of the most original hard rock/heavy metal bands to rise up from the United States underground; The original and most prominent lineup featuring Page Hamilton on guitar and vocals, Henry Bogdan on bass, John Stanier on drums, and various background guitarists. Their original sound was based around heavy guitar distortion with droning riffs, outrageous guitar shredding and solos (influenced by bands such as Sonic Youth, Void and Killing Joke as well as many jazz musicians), loud chuggy bass lines, heavy snare drumming, and background guitars to create a "wall of noise" sound.

A huge typo that Ultimate Guitar made, misnaming the legendary Aerosmith as "Aerosmoth" on the front page. The interviewer also made a mistake combining the names of Brad Whitford and Tom Hamilton and calling one of them "Brad Hamilton".

Often thinly disguised as a 'status update', the benchmark for a Facebrag is something that the offender would not normally say to friends, at work or otherwise in public for fear of being (correctly) branded as a complete nob.

Responding "FACEBRAG" on the offender's post in capitals can perhaps discourage others from repeating this heinous crime against humility.
