I wonder what the eventual dub will change Foo Fighters to

This might be a very dumb question, but why are the anime stand names in english subtitles/dubs so different than the actual names? Is it a trademark thing with band names?

They go around to the rights holders to get permission as to avoid weird legal trouble. Some say yes, some say no. Apparently song and album titles are easier than outright band names.

Notably Foo Fighters kept her name in Eyes of Heaven, as did Weather Report.

Interesting - thank you!
