    Chop Suey was named that because the original name of Righteous Suicide would get the song banned.

      Righteous Suicide or Self-righteous Suicide? Haven’t heard anything about it either way, but asking because the second is in the lyrics and would be more apt.

      Though IMO Chop Suey is an even better name because of the imagery it conjures combined with the meaning of the song. It’s pretty graphic like a holy fuck moment when you connect the dots.
