Surely, consumers will be confused as fuck when they try to purchase a demon hunter service and they end up with some weird metal band.

If anyone's confusing the market it's the band!

    That's exactly what trademark doesn't cover. If it's different industries with no overlap it's fine.

    I have a Delta scroll saw at the house, and I've flown to Atlanta on Delta. They're different companies sharing a name, but that's okay because their products don't overlap.

    A more interesting example is Apple. Apple Records and Apple Commputers got info a trademark kerfuffle in the 2000s when Apple Computers started selling music on iTunes.
