I dont look at the word Bizarre and think french i look at it and think of it as English, but then i like using the word, its works in a variety of situations and doesnt sound quite so bum-fuck as describing something as 'weird'
This.
It's actually quite funny when english kids start using french words as if they were always part of their own language. Bizarre sound just fine in french, but it sounds horrible in english. You guys won't see it the same way as I do because you do not speak french. Therefore you really cannot understand why it's terribly funny to ear english speaking dudes using the word bizarre.
And if it should be pronounced in english, the band would have been named Bizarre Reverend and not Reverend Bizarre. The second form is a form used in french and not in english. So these finnish guys really tried to make it sound french when they picked this name up.
Plus, they are finnish, probably not french speaking at all.
So Peste Noire sounds good, a french band. Reverend Bizarre sounds bad, not a french band :P
Also, I've always seen Kreator and Slayer as two similar bands. But one sounds good and the other just doesn't. At least IMO. I feel just the same about bands like Illnath and Cradle Of Filth. CoF sucks... and Illnath is great. Strangly, both have similar song structures and use the same kind of melodies, but one is just way better than the other one.
