The second word is not English, but should be familiar to many. (Or it does have a meaning in English as well, but it's specialist vocabulary. People are more likely to know the foreign meaning)

Ascending Anvil

If there is a band called "Ascending Anvil" there's no way I'm not trying it out.

Light Purple could be a cover band that makes pop versions of Deep Purple songs. And Leaves Tool was founded by a musician who earlier played in Tool.
