  • Sometimes an artist who is known for a particular area of expertise gets tired of the same old thing and want to try something new. Most of the time, these creative people sign their own work, satisfied to ride their own coat-tails. Other times, the artist feels that they need to hide their actual identity behind a new name. There are several reasons for this. Sometimes, it's just that the artist wants to succeed or fail on the merits of the new work and wants to avoid the impression that they are simply riding their previous fame to new glory. Sometimes the new area is questionable or not seen as "up to standard". And other times they just want to avoid squicking their own fanbase. This is a different phenomenon from simply using a pen name or a stage name, in that the person in question is already known, and successful, by another identity. For example, Marshall Mathers issuing records as Eminem is still the same old rap music; but if Eminem used the name "Bohunk Anthrax" do a country album, it would count as Same Face, Different Name.
