If you can't rile Charlton Heston (Body Count) or President Clinton (Sister Souljah), the best way to get attention is to have an onstage suicide. Hell on Earth, a band nobody should have ever heard of, and its plans prompted the St. Peterburg city council to quickly pass an emergency ordinance that makes it illegal conduct a suicide for commercial or entertainment purposes. The band intends to go ahead with an on-stage suicide this weekend...all for the sake of raising awareness of right-to-die issues.

Note to rock bands: If you want anybody to be able to find your website via Google, don't use a name that is used for a thousand other purposes. That's known as the world's worst marketing ploy.
