Hi Padanok,
The basic way of looking at is "Trademark" covers a product. "Servicemark" covers a service.
As a musical act, you are a service. If, let's say ALL you do is make CD's but never play live, then maybe your name could only apply to a product in which Trademark would be fine. But for most bands/artists who record and play live, it's a service first, a product second.
Mind you, when you are filing, it's all the same form, this is just a technicality. You'll still use the ® [little (R) in a circle] when you are registered. "TM" & "SM" can be used anytime and used with "trademark pending".
