Band Name Origins:

  • The band name alludes to a Vietnam-era GI slang backronym for a particularly bad combat situation, which stands for "F***ed Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In" Submitted by: ronan
  • Fugazi is a pizza like bread that contains many air bubbles. "Faux gaz" is old French slang for a fake diamond which can be distinguished by the minute gas bubbles trapped inside. I have heard the term used in both languages to describe someone or something as being fake. Submitted by: malte
