Vaporwave went one better by putting symbols in the band name. Sometimes the band name is just a bunch of triangles or something.
Of course, there was that time that Prince changed his name to a symbol, and there's also a band called !!! (pronounced "chik-chik-chik")
Oh no xD you're right! I have seen similarity trends in the Witch House genre, though most artists are kind enough to replace for example A with a V and E with and X or stuff like that. That's doable at least. But weird symbols or exclamation points is just madness lol
