          Radiohead likely has a trademark on Radiohead. This means you can't have a name that would likely confuse consumers looking for music by Radiohead. You could start a bathroom installation company named Radiohead because people wouldn't confuse bathroom installation and music (as an example). I personally think Radiohead and Radiohead 2 would be confusing, but we'd have to see what the courts would say. Most likely is, unless you have a ton of money for lawyers to pursue it the legal fees would do you in or you'd lose defending yourself. Even then, would you be willing to spend that much to be able to use Radiohead 2?

              Probably not killed, but you might be sued by XL Recordings and Radiohead.

                        I remember a few bands that were "killed" by their "ugliness on video" (such as with Fastball). Yet Thom York got that messed up eye and is perfectly fine in videos.

                        I did not realize Fastball was perceived as ugly, what happened?

                        Also, Thom Yorke is good looking-- especially when he licks his lazy eye during the instrumental breaks. ๐Ÿ˜

                          damn, thatโ€™s a long name

                          radiohead 2 am i going to get sued or killed if i use this name

                          reminds me of the album title

                          When the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king what he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight and he'll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring there's no body to batter when your mind is your might so when you go solo, you hold your own hand
                          And remember that depth is the greatest of heights and if you know where you stand, then you know where to land and if you fall it won't matter, cuz you'll know that you're right
