Posted by: Jason Tate (11/08/08)
The United Nations (ie: the real one) has found out about United Nations (the band) and had facebook remove their page. Check the replies for more.

It's about time! The actual UN has officially spent more time on this band then on the genocide in Africa.

"Check the replies for me?" So you want everyone to look at this image personally for you?

They could've spent more time focusing on the genocide that is their music.

Oh heavens! A relatively small, unknown punk/hardcore band might confuse someone into thinking that www.unitedfuckingnations.com is the real UN website and that Geoff Rickly is the head of the UN.


For fuck's sake.

On the other hand, I bet the band are loving this and are thinking, "FINALLY!!!"

They had a controversial name & album cover because they knew their music wouldn't get them any headlines.
It's desperate publicity for a desperate band.

I mean infringement is infringement any way you slice it, but it's still pretty funny.

Also, you'd be pretty foolish to assume actual members of the general assembly had anything to do with dealing with this - it's much more likely that an intern or some staff worker came upon the band, so don't act like this is really distracting them from Africa or anything else.

I'm not sure why I'm defending the U.N., but c'mon, let's be real here.
