* HarsherInHindsight: While 'Bluebell', being about attempted rape, was nwturally already a dark song, it feels even more harrowing knowing that bassist Maureen Herman was raped a few years after the band split.

* FandomRivalry: There's one with fans of [[Music/CourtneyLove Hole]] because Hole is viewed by some fans as a copy of Babes In Toyland (it doesn't help that Hole managed to achieve more mainstream success than Babes In Toyland. Nor does it help that Hole's lead singer is very controversial for unrelated reasons). The animosity is quite one-sided though, as Hole fans generally like Babes In Toyland. Although Hole and Babes In Toyland fans can also be considered FriendlyFandoms, as a lot of people enjoy both bands due to their similar themes and aesthetics.

* FollowTheLeader: Some view [[Music/CourtneyLove Hole]] as Courtney Love's attempt to become famous with her own copy of Babes In Toyland, having seen the success her friend Kat had gained. This is partially because of some similar lyrics, partially because Hole started off as a punk band like Babes In Toyland (despite the fact Courtney Love had once said to Kat, "You'll never get anywhere playing that punk noise!", and partially because Courtney Love was perceived as stealing the kinderwhore style Kat is considered the creator of. Although Courtney says her style was actually inspired by Chrissy Amphlett of Music/{{Divinyls}}.
