They changed their name to Finger Eleven once they realized their music had changed and they wanted to be taken more
seriously, and with aname like Rainbow Butt Monkeys that wasn't going to happen. They became Finger Eleven for their
breakthrough Tip, released on Mercury Recordsin Canada in 1997 and re-released by Wind-Up Records in the United States in
1998. The name Finger Eleven comes from an earlier version of thesong Thin Spirits from the album Tip. Lead singer, Scott
Anderson explains: "when everything is pushing you in one direction and your instinctdrives you in another--that’s finger
eleven." This also marked a change in the band's sound.
