PETA wants Aussie rock band Hunters & Collectors to change its name.

The Australian head of campaigns for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has written to the members of the iconic rock group urging them to make a name change to "discourage people from hunting animals".

It struck us that there were other band names that need to change their name due to political correctness...
