  Misnomer - ZeBOX Artist
Dazed, a powerful all-round guitarist was initially drafted in to help fill out the live sound but rapidly became an integral part of the overall musical direction when the rest of the band recognised her far-reaching talent.
Kerri, a unique vocalist joined the band after it was decided that the sound would benefit form a beautiful female vocal, and she fitted the bill perfectly.
Misnomer are a rare breed; with much instrument swapping, influence sharing and rock 'n' roll shenanigans, their lazy effortless Sonic Youth class and all singing all writing style has led them to the forefront of the industry's attention.

 IDN Bands: Misnomer
With the current dominance of Linkin Park and Evanescence, it's clearly a good time for Misnomer to be playing their brand of laid-back electronic rock.
Whereas Evanescence is a rock band with electronic aspects, Misnomer are clearly an electronic band with some hints of rock influences, like on the soaring 'Genius', the stand-out moment with its chorus of "Where did I put my happy face?" sticking out.
All in all, this is an assured and confident band, as evident during Misnomer's time at mp3.com when they had over 300,000 downloads and reaching #1 in the charts.

 Swarf and Misnomer
Well, someone seems to have forgotten to inform Misnomer, who are in full-on guitar mode as they crowd themselves onto the absurdly small performance space (Madame Jojo's doesn't have a stage, it has a shelf).
The guitars don't come as a surprise to me, because I've seen Misnomer before and I know what they're like...or do I? Last time I caught Misnomer live, they were doing a kind of rumbustious indie thing, half way between Chumbawamba and Sonic Youth.
It's a relief when Misnomer's guitarist steps up for a vocal: her air of cool detachment instantly puts us in an entirely different place.

 Bison and Buffalo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
'Buffalo' is the popular name often used to describe North American bison; however, this is a misnomer.
These terms are similar to bufle and buffe, which were commonly used to refer to any animal that provided good hide for buff leather.
Despite the misnomer, the term ‘buffalo’ has been used interchangeably with ‘bison’ since early explorers first discovered the North American species, and has become entrenched as a colloquialism in North American culture and language.
