[1][2][3][4][5] Serj Tankian was asked how the name "Flying Cunts of Chaos" was chosen and he stated; "Well, I was originally thinking of naming the record that, but I thought it might not make it into any retail stores.
So when it was time to come up with a name for the band I thought 'Serj and the Flying Cunts of Chaos' just for fun, to be honest.
We had two or three different names, I ran them by the guys in the band and, overwhelmingly, everyone liked the 'Cunts', so..."[1] He also felt that the word "cunt" resonates better than "pussy", "whore"," or "bitch".
[7] The band members include: Dan Monti (lead guitar, backing vocals), the guitarist from Primus, Larry LaLonde,[8] Mario Pagliarulo (bass, backing vocals), Troy Zeigler (drums) and Erwin Khachikian (piano).
