I will have to agree with Yoko in that the designs don't look the same at all. btw you can't necessarily copyright a band name.. You can (and should) copyright all your music compositions.
However, you certainly can TRADEMARK a band's name. I did that with mine a few years ago:
Word Mark SOCE, THE ELEMENTAL WIZARD
Goods and Services IC 041. US 100 101 107. G & S: Entertainment namely, live performances by a musical band. FIRST USE: 19980917. FIRST USE IN COMMERCE: 20000719
Standard Characters Claimed
Mark Drawing Code (4) STANDARD CHARACTER MARK
Serial Number 78844896

Current Filing Basis 1A
Original Filing Basis 1A
Published for Opposition November 7, 2006

It's kind of expensive, but that way you have legal rights to it. Just go to the US trademark office, submit the forms, and you're good to go. I know of other bands and such who have trademarked their names.
behold...
