Whirr
Whirr is an American rock band from the San Francisco Bay Area. The group formed in 2010, originally as Whirl, but had to legally change its name after a woman performing acoustic covers of Black Sabbath songs trademarked the name and threatened a lawsuit.〔 Whirr's shoegaze sound is often compared to My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive.〔〔 Founding guitarist Nick Bassett also played in the band Deafheaven surrounding and including the release of their 2011 album, ''Roads to Judah''.〔〔
