Good Names for a Band
 
Haven't we all done this..a phrase here or there, a flash of
inspiration...I did think of 'Spinal Tap' years before the movie came out.
What are band names you have come up with..?

canuckguy 01-07-2008 09:36 AM

If you get a chance too, check out this movie. Great scene when the band is trying to come up with new names...


tecoyah 01-07-2008 09:57 AM

Long ago...in a place far far away.....(San Diego)

There was a band of dubious fame....unskilled and obnoxious

They disbanded....so you may have the Name:

----ROXAÜF----


Come on....get your Rocks Off

The Phamtastic Four (if I were the leader).

Or maybe something like Tech Support or some other name that's not badass..

I was briefly the bass player in a hard rock band called Diminished Responsibility.

I once talked a mate out of naming his band To Be Confirmed - anyone seeing the adverts would just assume that the venue hadn't booked anyone yet.

Chess Club

Cap'n Spunky and Grandma's Wet Bush

Bands that didn't:

The previous band with the name is long gone, and we got the name from Dave Barry's Guide to Homes and Other Black Holes like they did, we are not ripping them off.

<! My brother and I, along with two of our friends, are in the process of recording the first Death Penis album. Our serious band, which has songs written but is on hold until DP finishes, is called Disparage. Death Penis are a grindcore/metal/electronic/disco hybrid and are not to be taken seriously, Disparage is the serious band and will be a combination of old school black metal, death metal, and hopefully some melodic metal.>
