DECODE THE BAND NAME Game
 

Ok, I couldn't find anything like this, but I thought it would be goofy and fitting in nonsense.

Take a popular or well-known name of a band/music group and give it a twist or find similar words in place of the words in their name.

EXAMPLE:

'Timid Rodent' is a twist to the band name Modest Mouse
This should be all sorts of fun, because we can sure think of band names in a different way after contemplating this.

Ok, first one:

Hitting Squash

Smashing Pumpkins?

Damn, thinking of a band name is tougher than I thought it would be.

Dedicated Adversary

I know this is wrong, but all I could come up with is Arch Enemy or Public Enemy. :(

Grim Sect

Half right.

Bad Religion?

are there any left unanswered? I got one that someone out there has to recognize

Nightmare Cinema

Man I really suck at this. All I could come up with is Incubus and Rocky Horror Picture Show, but that's not a band; it's a musical.

So the two that haven't been completely answered are:
Dedicated Adversary and Nightmare Cinema.

Nightmare Cinema

Dream Theater?

OK, mine was up long enough. It was Sworn Enemy.

Someone else?

The Apertures.

The Doors?

Umm... Half Dollar.

Fifty Cent.....

hmmm....

Spit?

saliva

hmm...

chilled world?

The Appreciative Cadavers
Three-Quarter Foot Spikes

The Appreciative Cadavers = Swollen Members? man I have no idea

Three-Quarter Foot Spikes = Nine Inch Nails


Easy one: On Fire

The Appreciative Cadavers= The Grateful Dead
On Fire.. ??

Okay heres one:
Aural Subservient

Chilled World= Iced Earth

Okay heres an easy one.."locomotive"

Asta!!

Aural Subservient=Audioslave

Pea-colored Suntime (hey, so maybe suntime isn't a word. So?)
Contra-Banner

locomotive=Train!

Pea-Colored Suntime = Greenday !
Contra-Banner =.. The Police ??

Here's one for K-Wise:
"One up" from a Copper Ottoman

since that's for k-wise, I won't answer (plus I have no idea what it is...)

fresh passengers atop the heliotrope gnostic

Nothing to do with contraband, if that's what you're thinking.

Azure Male Confederation

Blue Man Group :)

NotQuiteFruit

In Flames
as for NotQuiteFruit, no idea


heres a couple:
Sightless Defender
metal mistress
dirty cot
and dull calmness

not trying to be a show off or anything, just thought multiple choices would be more fun

Metal mistress = Iron Maiden

I'm not sure if NotQuiteFruit works for the band I'm thinking of.. Here's a different take that might help: LessThanLemon

All I could get out of that list was Sightless Defender=Blind Guardian. The rest have me stumped

Ha heres an easy one

"Both of you"

a little bit harder one
"Tempertmental Downheartedness"

Asta!!

Both of you = U2

easy easy easy
Matriarch.

where despair is manufactured

I keep thinking blind melon for Carn's but I don't think it works :(

Fear Factory SiNai?

Yup, thats it!

Mine is Sublime.
Sub = less than, not quite
lime = fruit, lemon

Didn't quite fit, but that's the only thing I could think of.

Here's a few more:

crooked loop
numbered birds
cyanide

Ahhhh! No, it was a good one, it just went right over my head :)

numbered birds=counting crows
cyanide= poison

pasted-colored man
a very heavy flying contraption

Led Zep?.....

Of course :)

Pink Floyd?

Man who solicits prostitutes + Chief executive of a city

The Mayor and the Pimp
???

what Bob is short for + a botanical entity

Good job, Bern! But that's not what I was looking for. I've never heard of "The Mayor and the Pimp" either. You got it half right.

Nice work!

Well since there is none for me to decode, here are a few:

Daddy Rutilus rutilus
Tuner Noggin
Below Promise

well, out of those three i got Papa Roach with an extra roach?

Tuner noggin = Radiohead

Below Promise = Under Oath

"Two brothers" (an no it's not Nelson!:hmm: )

Asta!!

Actually, Rutilus rutilus is the name of the roach species, so I didn't repeat it accidentaly.

We got a fuckin entomologist here people! Fuckin genius! Who'da fuckin thunk it?! Ain't you special? Wanna fight about it?! I love you man seriously I love you man really...no no...swear ta gah..swear ta gah..I need a soda...brb...

Haha, by coincidence, I've had to look that up before, I guess it just stuck.

The Allman Brothers Band?
I'm not very good at guessing.

But here's another two:
Blunder Bind
Conceptions Wane

Damn it coulda been them to but in this case they aren't who I'm talking about. It'll come out eventually through process of elimination.

Asta!!

New Riders of the Purple Sage!

(Oh, and Contra Banner has got to be Anti Flag.)

Vermillion Monarch
1010 p10

Actually, nope. Maybe it doesn't fit in here, because its just a single person.

Heavy D

I'll have to get to the other ones.

Asta!!

Displaced Person = Exile?

Asta!!

Mine are still out there:
Blunder Bind
Conceptions Wane

So is mine!

"Two Brothers" shit I'll even give a hint EA!!

Asta!!

I'm just gonna give up mine. Maybe I used a bad format to come up with it

Difficult-D = Eazy-E

Here's a new one then:
"Jupiter Time"
It is incredibly obscure (the twisted name, not the band itself) and I will give anyone who can guess it a whole penny.
:thumbsup:

No clue 30 Seconds To Mars? Well if thats not it don't count me out yet I'll just have to think harder which hurts...
