* HilariousInHindsight: [[Music/{{Sigh}} Mirai Kawashima]] jokingly stated in a tribute to Killjoy that if there is an afterlife, when he dies, he would not rejoin the band if he asked him to on the other side. Six years later, their last album was revealed to be featuring him.

* PosthumousPopularityPotential: While the band weren't ''extremely'' obscure during their run, they were far from a household name and were more of a cult act, only receiving brief coverage during the sparse instances a more popular artist was attached to them. However, upon Killjoy's death, just about every prolific metal news source paid tribute to him and acknowledged his (and by extension the band's) influence on the scene, and while they aren't exactly "big" by most people's definition, nowadays they're a lot more popular than they've ever been as a result.

* ArchivePanic: They have 6 albums (7 if you count ''Ready for Death''), which isn't a huge amount.

** Quite a few people discovered the band after [[Music/{{Pantera}} Phil Anselmo]] joined in the late 90s, as Pantera were still together and one of the biggest names in all of metal at the time. Subverted, however, as elitism was still prominent at the time and the band's target audience quickly reacted with ItsPopularNowItSucks to Phil's involvement, accusing him of only joining for underground clout (which was completely untrue, as he and Killjoy had known each other for several years beforehand), which in turn meant their increase in popularity was extremely short lived.
** Averted when [[Music/{{Slipknot}} Mick Thomson]] joined briefly as a session guitarist on ''Deathtrip 69'', as despite Slipknot's immense popularity, hardly anyone knew he was on the album and his involvement did virtually nothing for them, even despite his appearance being promoted. This was likely due to the album being delayed several years following its announcement, which possibly led people to forget.
