 Billy Talent get the name Billy Talent from a character int he book hardcore logo. The main character in that book was named Billy Tallent (with 2 't's). Billy Tallent was Benjamin Kowalewicz's favorite character and the story line of that book he enjoyed. Before the band was named Billy Talent They were name Pezz. During the years of Pezz the band had made 1 album titled, Watoosh! . After that album the band had to shange there name because of another small band in the U.S named Pez who claimed to have the name first, and demanded that they change it and were going to sew if they didn't. Therefore the band changed the name to Billy Talent, and had made an unbelievable amount of success, unlike the band Pez from the U.S.
