Post hardcore band from St. Catharines, Ontario, the name is pronounced as Alexis On Fire (so not as Alex Is On Fire).The band describes its sound as that of 'two Catholic high school girls in mid knife fight' (a reference to the number A Dagger Through the Heart of St. Angeles).
It owes its name to – take a deep breath - lactating contortionist porn star Alexis Fire. Use your imagination.
This Alexis was not so easy really, because when she found out that her stage name had been exploited as band name, she tried to sue Alexisonfire.
Bad luck though for Alexis: her stage name had not officially been laid down in writing.
Active: 2001-present, CAN
