How we got our band’s name:
 
“We bore down on the ship at the sea’s edge and launched her in the salt immortal sea, stepping our mast and spar in the black ship.  Only instruct me goddess, can I pass Charybdis or fight off Scylla when she raids my ship?
 
Lose headway there along that rockface while you break out arms, and she’ll swoop over you, I fear, once more.  No, no, put all your backs into it, row on; invoke Blind Force.  But now a new breeze came up for us astern: a canvas-bellying land breeze, hale shipmate sent by the singing nymph with the sun-bright hair.
 
So, we made fast the braces, took our thwarts, with full sail spread all day above our coursing, “till the sun dipped and all the ways grew dark upon the fathomless, unresting sea.  Brave Odysseus could now surrender to the deep sleep that overcame him, spared and pushed past the dangers by this second wind.”
​
Homer (adapted), CIRCA 750 B.C.
