NAME MY BAND!

Recommended Posts

So, I've finally found a drummer that looks like he's going to stay with my band. Now all my band needs is a name. We were going to be called 'Faster' due to the fact that we are indeed a quite fast hardcore/punk band, and also that there is a very good Manic Street Preachers song of that name. However, it appears that more than one band has beaten us to it. Damn them.

 

So, the rhythm section are holding out for being called 'The Minions'. Me and the guitarist hate this name, and quite frankly I'm looking for something, ANYTHING to throw at them that might distract them from it.

 

To the point that I might have to suggest 'Revolution Zero' and see how it goes down...

 

So please, everyone, fire away with any names you think might fit for a mainly political hardcore punk band. Straight Bread will not be considered, although I might try and put some music to Drea's lyrics for a laugh.

So you are the lead singer than? I think "Revolution Zero" is fine for a punk band name. You could also call yourselves "Less of a Sinner" which I actually have a story for.

"We Are Not Emo (We just dress like it)"

 

Parenthesis is the "cool" thing, along with guys wearing chick pants, and pants MADE with tears and holes already in them.

 

"Rage Against Homework (And all things trendy)"

 

More parenthesis. And homework is trendy in a poser sense. And no that's not supposed to make sense.

 

"The Minions...Minus One"

 

Take a shot at those who wanted you guys to be called the minions.

 

"You Are Of No Help"

 

Well that's me, I guess.

Is that what Nevermore did after Dead Heart In a Dead World, and they did lots of drugs?

In the vein of Faster, Revol. Or Repeat.

 

Manics are good at 1 word slogans. Plus it's a built in fan base for sloppy punk.

"I'm a stupied lamewad who writes fake wrestling matches in his spare time + 3" has potential.

 

Giant Gonzales and the Happy Fun-Time Kids

 

I like it!

 

Seriously though, Revolution Zero would be a pretty good name. If you're going the self referencial route, Toxxic Shock Syndrome would be okay.

No.

 

I'm not naming a band after something that you can get from used tampons. I only knew you could get it from alcohol excess before I joined the fed, which is why I named a move after it.

 

Revolution Zero has been shot down by the drummer. Maybe Skull Radio will fare better.

I'll give you an amount somewhere between a Canadian dollar and a Euro to go with Miracle Violence Connection.

Maybe you'd fare better if you presented your band members with the name complete with a rough version of a beta-logo? When there's a visual that looks cool with a name then people are more open to it.

Guest step up, ghetto blaster.

oh, Skull Radio.

 

I vote for whipstickgostop, but mostly because I'm listening to it right now.
