Line 2:
This is the band fronted and led by [[Trent Lane]], [[Daria Morgendorffer|Daria's]] friend [[Jane Lane|Jane's]] brother. The band was first formed at [[Lawndale High School]], though Trent and [[Jesse Moreno]] had been playing guitars together since they were twelve and have been in previous bands.
It is an alternative-rock grunge band, with elements of heavy metal. Most of their songs aim for screeds on the tortured human condition, to a ludicrous degree. They are generally portrayed in a negative light - in their very first mention in "[[Road Worrier]]", Daria said the name sounded like a Doors tribute band and Jane laughed that they ''wish'' they were that good - and the few of their songs we get to hear are not good. Even ''Trent'' once said the songs in the second set were so lame, he'd leave the gig if he wasn't in the band ("[[Jane's Addition]]").
They often introduce themselves as, "We're Mystic Spiral, but we're thinking of changing the name." Some of the alternate names have included "Helpful Corn" and "Something-Something Explosion". They also wondered aloud if it would help if they "spelled Mystic with 2 Ys." Daria's unspoken, but thought, response was: "Sure. And I'll spell my name DarYa, and be crowned Miss America."
