Band Names
 
Band names are tricky, alright. Whenever I try to come up with one, my mind draws blank and I have nothing. I recently noticed that most bands have shitty names.

I mean, what the hell is 'The Sleeping'?

Discuss things that would be good band names.

A couple from a 'cool band names' google search:

Ass Cabbage ('This guy saw a girl with a nice ass and said, "That's some good ass grabbage." So, my friend didn't hear him correctly and said, "Ass cabbage?"')
Ass Fault ('It's kinda like asphalt like the concrete stuff so I thought it was a cool band name')

i remember a thread like this back on the old board. someone came up with "Terminal Velocity Kitten" which i thought was hilarious.

Fidget Pigeon--alliterative, and conjures a cool image
Pancreatas--pancreas and creative combine to give you a band name that sounds like some a character out of a classic greek play
Shishkabibbles--actually, this is too good for a band name. give this one to your child. it's totally androgynous, too.

eh, you're right, alliteration is at the BEGINNING of the words. what word do i want then? for the soft "g" in the middle of each word?

can't believe i got negative rep for THAT.

The name Faux Real would be cool (for whatever, not necessarily a band).

This reminds me of how Wire (the magazine) will post a 'dodgy band names' list every once and a great while. Some of them are hilarious. Such as:

Poultry in Motion
Who Will Carry My Arms
Jehovahs Wetness
Israelvis
Long Live Death
Thank God We're Immortal
Slut Freak
Lack of Afro
Pretty Girls Make Graves
Stuckas Over Bedrock
Teeth of the Hydra
Child Pornography
The Shamu Afterbirth Orchestra
Stiff Richards
The Well Hungarians

AHAHA.
