Ahaha. Best band name ever. How does one pronounce ! as a "chk" sound, tho? I wonder how they decided on that. LOL.

I think I might have seen something online where it said the "!!!"could be pronounced either Chk Chk Chk or Pow Pow Pow.

I think this is another thing like when Prince changed his name to that symbol.

techincally, from what i've heard, you can symbolize it and verbalize it anyway you want, just with 3 repeating symbols or syllables so *** $$$ ### are all !! just, whatever you want. that's what i've read anyway, in an interview somewhere haha

you basically say the name as any word that an exclamation can be used for and said three times in a row: chk chk chk, pow pow pow, bang bang bang... etc. chk chk chk is the prime example that the band uses.

Every single time news is posted on !!!, there are a handful of posts asking "How do you pronounce that?" or something related to the band's name. I wish people would just get past it and listen to the music. And no, you can't insert any symbol you want. The band name is "!!!", nothing more and nothing less. As for how you say it, it's any sound you want said 3 times. But it has to be the same sound. And just for a little FYI, according to a !!! 12" I own, there's a sticker on it that says "Spell it !!!, but say it chk chk chk". That's the most commonly used and known form.
As for this album, it's incredibly good - as expected - and follows in the format that fans have come to know and love. My personal favorite is "Bend Over Beethoven", especially towards the end when the sound snowballs.

I thought maybe you just said the word before "!!!" really loud.

get over it, if you give yourself a name that THOROUGHLY CONFUSES PEOPLE, people will be confused. so until this band sells 14 million records, there will always be people asking "how the hell do you pronounce that?" and saying "thats a stupid name, i dont get it"

It's from the movie The Gods Must Be Crazy. Everytime the natives got excited the subtitles would read !!!
Just an FYI for all you kids.

You're asking me to get over people posting on a message board about a band name. I'm really not all that upset or taken back by it and it doesn't really bother me throughout the day. So, to respond to you saying "get over it", there's nothing to get over. I don't care if this band has sold 4 records or 40 million records, just to respond to news by bringing up a band's name over and over is dumb. Yes, it's a weird name, yes, it's confusing, yes, they're not mainstream. But unless you enjoy the music and are actually wondering what the name means (in which case, you could go to any number of sources including Wikipedia), why post on a message board just for the sake of asking a question that's been asked time and time again - especially when it's already been brought up in the news post once before, nevermind the thousands of times in other news posts prior - instead of focusing on the news at hand.

wait a second, i shouldnt get into this argument, but think before you speak. you JUST posted in the Panic! thread about them making a video and you think its ridiculous because its from a cd that has been out 'too long'. your arguing with someone not to post in a thread, when well, you probably shouldnt have posted in that thread. !!! is a ridiculous band name, and for as long as they are around, that question WILL be asked. so just dont worry about it.

I agree with the fact that the music should overpower the band name, but if you go about asking someone to order this cd at your local store for you, it will be darn awkward.

I do think it's ridiculous that Panic! At the Disco are releasing videos to an album that came out in September 2005. And I do think it's ridiculous that people have to bring up !!!'s name a dozen times in every news thread. They're 2 seperate ideas. I'm not really seeing your logic here. And trust me, I'm not worrying about the questions being asked, I just think it's tedious and overdone.
