tourniquet 

The dictionary defines a tourniquet as a surgical device for arresting / stopping haemorrhage by compression of a blood vessel.
Meaning could be adapted a couple of ways:
(Surgical) Cloth or band tightened around a part of the body (like the arm) to stop blood flow temporarily.
(Religious) What Christ offers to anyone who comes to Him - Psalm 147:3 says that, "He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds".

You choose your own meaning.

Tourniquet 

Tourniquet is a great thrash band that has released awesome albums. They have a great technical talent: the band's leader, Ted Kirkpatrick, is one of the most awesome drummer's in thrash; maybe is not as good as Dave Lombardo or Nick Menza, but he is awesome with the drums. Gary Lenaire and Mark Lewis, the original guitarists, were astounding guitarists; they made great riffs and solos. Guy Ritter, the lead vocalist, made a kick-ass work while he was in the band. All the other members were pretty great too, but these were the guys in the first album, Stop the Bleeding.

They are a great band, one of the greatest thrash bands in history; but they are not very known only because they a Christian band. I recommend songs like "Viento Borrascoso", "A Dog's Breakfast", "Ready or Not", "Ark of Suffering" or "Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance".
Tourniquet most famous song is "Ark of Suffering".
