You can deabte all you like about them using the name, that's fine--type away. But to say they are not extremely good at playing is not really debatable.

I suspect the reiewer has a problem with them using the name and thought they could taint people's opinions of their actual performance with a most likely bogus negative review. This would give the people who dislike them something to point at and say "See--I told you, they are ruining it." But the fact is, they play amazingly well.
