yup you're spot on. they even appoligised to the fans. they weren't asked to change the name but the thought it would be prudent as they had a new album out in the US due not long after.
there was alot of bitching about it, but i found it funny when they chose "pacifier" as the new name. cause who needs a pacifier? whingey babies. and they had to change the name to break into what market? the US hehehehe
