Answer: From a coldsore

Many may not agree with the correct answer, but it was taken from the offical Godsmack website. Here is the article posted on their own site to prove this!
Where the band name "Godsmack" came from:

Interview Quote from Sully:
"It was back when we were just getting started, we had a photo shoot and our old drummer came in with a huge cold sore. I was making fun of him all day, but he didn't say anything back. The next day, I came to rehearsal with a huge coldsore on my lip. And Tony (Rombola, the band's guitarist), said, 'That's God smacking you for yesterday.' It's about instant karma."
(Originally printed in The Reader April 1, 1999.)

Second part from their website about the coldsore:

Sully: "I was making fun of somebody who had a cold sore on his lip and the next day I had one myself and somebody said, "It's a godsmack." The name stuck. We were aware of the Alice In Chains song but didn't really think much about it. It's a cool song and the name had meaning for us. "
(Interview with NYRock)

8. Who was the co-producer on Godsmack's first CD?

Answer: Mudrock

Sully was the producer on "Godsmack", but Mudrock is listed as the co-producer!

9. What band was Sully Erna in before he started Godsmack?
