The One And Only Band Name Idea Thread


Recommended Posts

So my friends and I are thinking of starting a band which will probably be some sort of 70's-80's punk/new wave sounding thing (I'm thinking along the lines of The Stooges, but a bit more melodic). Anyways, we've had many, many ideas for band names, and have never really settled on any one. I thought perhaps I'd start a thread for good band names that have never been used, and here it is. This will either go down in flames or be lifted to the heavens, I suppose, but nevertheless, here are a few we've pondered in the past...

 

The Pubic Hares

Red Light Go

Mosquito #12

The F-Bombs

Cupid Stunts

Kangaroo Henchmen

Adjective Noun

 

Anyways...anyone else have any good ideas, questions, or comments? Add names as you please, for they will all be considered.

Oh, yes, a few I had forgotten...

 

Joe Cancer & The Free Radicals

Spazmatic

The Polite Thieves (I attended an Eels concert whereupon the ending came to the THIRD encore...I took a water bottle that E, the lead singer, had beside his piano, as I was very thirsty...when the Eels came back out 15 minutes later to play for the quarter of the audience that was left, I put the half gone bottle of water back beside his piano...I told E this after the show, and he called us "Polite Thieves," hence the name)

Driftood sounds like a nu metal/generic band like Puddle of Mudd or Saliva.

If you're playing 70's punkish stuff, then The F-Bombs is the best one on your list.

 

How about..

Unchaste

The Classless

Dybbuk

Zhorn

Sound Like The Hu-Man (my friend's grind/funk/metal band...Agent, you might like them, they're decent enough, but the vocals suck; and the name is a quote from the classic b-movie Robot Monster)

The Family Crow (or insert any other name)

Cuntface Shenanigans

Society Taught Destruction

Preparation H Bomb

Phagz

Dahmer's Messiah

The F-Bombs

 

It's more or less taken--a band around here is called "F-Bomb."

I could think of a bunch of band names just using that as a basis.

 

Similarly, Live/Die Like the Human.

 

Other MST3k/b-movie inspired ones. Just making them up if ya think they suck.

 

TOR-CHA!

The Master Wouldn't Approve

The Amazing Colossal ____ (pretty much anything).

The One(s) with the Gun(s)

We'll Kill You With a Forklift

Time for Go to Dead

Watch Out for Snakes

 

I think there's already a band called Soylent Green.

 

Random ones:

 

Weasels Ripped My Flesh

Brick Slaughterhouse

Shitstompers

Ball-Lakers

Weasels Ripped My Flesh

 

That's a Frank Zappa album.

 

Another punkish name: The Piss Shivers.

A few more:

 

Pontious Pilate and the Naildrivers

The Overly Agressive Pacifists

The Purple Nurples

Those are all great names, especially The Overly Aggressive Pacifists, or T.O.A.P. for short. We could wear off-white suits during our performances.
