Well obviously the religious figurehead is Lemmy from Motorhead, but after that I'm stumped...

Guess I'll leave one final hint, and then if nobody has gotten it by tomorrow I'll give away the answer so somebody else can have a go again:

The name of the band consists of two words, with altogether three syllables. No "the" or any similar articles anywhere. The riddle has nothing to do with the semantic meaning of the band's name; think of it instead more in the direction of a rebus puzzle.

Ah, popol vuh

The rebus approach hint was what did it because I was barking up the wrong tree, nice one

:clap:  you got it!

(In case anyone is still wondering the phrase suggested by the riddle was "Pope'll woo"   ;) )

Wow, I would have never guessed that. Probably because I never new "Vuh" was pronounced like that even though I love that band.  :laughing:

"stressed" is just "desserts" spelled backwards
