Band Names


Recommended Posts

If it's anything like my last band, you'll end up spending more time arguing about what you're going to call yourself then you do playing. Leave coming up with a name until the absolute last minute, when you're thinking about doing gigs and stuff (unless you are at that stage).

Remember this; there ARE no perfect names that will jump out and grab you as soon as you hear them, so don't waste your time looking for one. Names don't make bands cool, bands make their names cool. Whatever you call youself won't make a blind bit of difference; once people have heard it a few times and have heard your music, the name will loose all meaning.

One bit of advice though: stay away from "The <whatever>s." It's being done to death right now.

I'd like to see more bands with one-word names. So many bands have totally shitty names these days with 5,6, even 7 words in them. And they aren't BAND names... they are PERHAPS song names... but rather crappy ones at that. Nobody knows how to name a band these days.
