Me and my prick of a mate, have deicded too begin an endeavour into the wide world of music. Our genre of choice has been decided as a screamo/gothic rock/emo hybrid.

Subject matter contained in the lyrics is as follows:

1. Suicide

2. Demonic possesion

3. Futility of life

4. Obscure religous refrences

5. Delving a bit into the occult

6. Love (if it exists)


So we have come too four name potentials. Our choices have been narrowed down to,

-Casual Obsession

-The Kindred Doctrine

-Time Decays

-Sovos]

EDIT: Sorry for no poll, I kinda spaced....woof..... Just post your likings below and ill commit each one too memory. Danke.

the Holy Mess.

Out of those four, Time Decays sounds the best. But mainly because the others sound a bit shit.

Are you too late to add the poll through thread tools?
I do not like any of the names, sorry.

Mercy Flush?

A slice of Cheesecake to whoever can tell me what show that came from, who said it, and why.

They'll be screaming about Satan and how their parents never "get" them and cutting their wrist?

They'll be screaming about Satan and how their parents never "get" them and cutting their wrist?

Just like Jesus for the extra Biblical reference.
Oh dear. That could actually form the basis of a song :s

As I suggested to the last person that asked this question: call your band I Ate Your Sister. It's gross on two levels.

ROFL! Win!

Our genre of choice has been decided as a screamo/gothic rock/emo hybrid.


Sorry, but that sounds like a band that would be called "We sound like we're just following the trends"

Maybe "So Yesterday"

Regarding the style, maybe "Bleeding Ears"[/flame]

serious options might be:
1. Crawling Upward (or, alternatively, Crawling Downward)
2. Blind Action
3. Random Numbers

Some suggestions:

Trebuchet Guevara

Animathanatos (that's Latin for soul and Greek for death baked together in a lingual casserole)

Death's Too Good (stolen from Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz)

The Unannounced

Tortured Logic (evocative of your attempted genre)

Living Out Of Spite

Catastrofeel ("darkly clever")

Homo Dissectus (you'll get a good cutting audience...)

Prader Willi (...for those who'd rather not use utensils)

Repaid in Barf (an adapted line from Heathers)

More O's (get it?)

Melon Collie Babies

Depress To Play

The Downward Spiral Cut Hams

Photon Torpordoes

Antizac

Tired of Ursa Minor (another borrow from Douglas Adams, who wrote about a magazine that featured an article headlined "When You Are Tired of Ursa Minor, You Are Tired of Life" -- and how the suicide rate in the constellation tripled after its publication)

The Timewasters

Undue (or perhaps Undo?) Diligence

Beigelisted (pun on "blacklisted", but "beige" from how Jill Sobule described life on meds: "I used to live under a gloomy cloud of grey / but now the sun is out and my whole world is beige...")

Distractor Trailer

Hot Dystopic

Darker Than Hue

Mama Lied

Be Nighted

Some suggestions:

Trebuchet Guevara



Awesome.

What's with all the emo music? I guess if you do it well, it's OK.

Anyway, I'll have to go with the sheer awesome of Trebuchet Guevara. From your choices, I pick Time Decay.

Generic Rebel #666

That sounds suffeciently deep to set people wondering if you thought about it at all, and the 666 appeals to the psuedo-satanist crowd.

That or you could resort to the tried and true method adopted by scores of bands down the ages.
First, get two hats. Or buckets. Hollow cylinders of some sort, suffeciently large to fit paper scraps in.
Now get some paper scraps.
Write down all the verbs you can think of. Put them in one hat.
Now write down all the nouns you can think of. Put them in the other hat.
Draw pairs of words from each hat until satisfied.

If you're feeling up to it, add more hats for other parts of speech..

I'm with the general crowd who suggests changing the genre first and then let us reconsider the band name second as appropriate.

-Casual Obsession

-Time Decays

Somehow I think of "Casual Decays" and "Time Obsession" when I read those 2 titles.

ROFL! Win!

*bows*

Thank you! I'm here all week!:D

So just let me get this strait. You want to be a mixture of random extreme's of the genre rock 'n roll? Emo's, all need to figure out if their gunna jump to just fucken jump already or for gods sake quite cryin about your cheatin' slut of a girlfriend...god just be a man...(Hed Pe Refrence)Screamo's...ummm now thats just innappropriat and their the one's that hopfully will jump (Off the hypothetical cliff of suicide).

No what you could do, to side-step being apart of the for some reason overly emotional genre of popular music, is play just music and allow the critics to place you in a genre...

I really have no good band name...for something so diseased as that kind of music it deserves no name (Hell might as well just call yourselfs "Going with the crowd")

Cathartic

Subject matter contained in the lyrics is as follows:

6. Love (if it exists)



Hmmm, how 'bout "Fluffy Joy Pumpkins"?

My college band was "Richard Cranium and the Novocaine Brains" We thought about changing that to "Nekkid" but felt too modest about our stage presence..

My neighbor is considering "Pudding and Sushi"

A great band at my college was called "Vomit Launch" mmmmm.

You could always do like Chevy did with the Camaro and just create your own new word; Mix consonants and vowels' Huztaq - Mrophi - hmmm. Nevermind that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

How do you feel about "University of Edgestow"?

"Letters from the Herd"

"Born to Lose" (provided you cover a Motorhead song)

"Cocks" (so that your fans, if you have any, will sometimes inadvertently say "I like Cocks," imagine the band T's)

"Band name here."

"Post Birth Abortion"

"Blood Fetish"

"Paper Street Soap" (if you don't get the reference, you basically suck)

"Smells like Victory"

"Anguisette"

Seriously though, the world doesn't need any more shitty emo/screamo bands. Just jump already.

Greetings and Salty Asians

Beefed Jerk

True Sedation (trucidation)

Blah Blah Blah

Unnecessary Surgical Procedures

Human Kleenex

I Peench

Circumcision By Fire

Insecurity Blanket

Your Tears Taste Good




I'm sure I could think of more If the mood struck me.

Banana Rider.

Call it Radian.

Amorous Demons.

Seriously though, the world doesn't need any more shitty emo/screamo bands. Just jump already.

That might make a good choice for your band's name.

Why not name your band after an Autechre song or release title? They've got a few interesting ones:

Pen Expers
Sim Gishel
Parhelic Triangle
Lentic Catachresis
Anvil Vapre
Gantz Graf
Kalpol Introl
Incunabula
Pro Radii
Augmatic Disport

1. Suicide

2. Demonic possesion

3. Futility of life

4. Obscure religous refrences

5. Delving a bit into the occult

6. Love (if it exists)

Heat Death, or some witty variation thereof.

4. Obscure religious references

IMO that would make a good band name :cool:

I had an idea for a band here in Connecticut. I would have several of the band members from the town of Mianus(pronounced My Anus), Connecticut. ((It was even featured on an early episode of 'Jackass'))

The band would be named after the town; Mianus

The first album would be called, "Evacuating Mianus". The follow-up album would be called, "Songs From Mianus"

Later albums would be in no particular order:

"Directly From Mianus"
"Mianus Loves You"
"Mianus Rips Another One"
"There's No End To Mianus"
"Come Visit Mianus"
"Spending Time in Mianus"
"Bleeding From Mianus"
"Mianus Burns"
"The Sun Shines on Mianus"

You get the idea. :)

"Letters from Mianus"
"Theres no place like Mianus"
"Mianus, Uranus"
"Will you be waiting in Mianus?"
"Mianus is home to thousands"
"When Mianus calls"


Should i stop?

Some good suggestions out there. I like "Trebuchet Guevara", "Hot Dystopic". Fave so far? The flamey-turned-suggestion "Just Jump Already".

While Trebuchet Guevara sounds good, it doesnt really make much sense does it? Unless it's not suppose to.
Which, given the current state of band names these days, i gather making sense is the last of the priorities.

It's wordplay. It's not strictly on-topic, but it is interesting - and at least it's not just another generic "the-something" band.

Like I said though, while I like it - it's not my preferred of those offered so far.

"Letters from Mianus"
"Theres no place like Mianus"
"Mianus, Uranus"
"Will you be waiting in Mianus?"

"When Mianus calls"

"From Mianus to Uranus"
"Kiss Mianus"
"Noise From Mianus"
"Stuck in Mianus"

"From Mianus to Uranus"
"Kiss Mianus"
"Noise From Mianus"


Noise from Mianus! Childish fart jokes. Pffft. Pathetic. Grow up!!


*giggles in the corner* *inner monologue "Noise from Mianus, ha!"*

"From Mianus to Uranus"
"Kiss Mianus"
"Noise From Mianus"

"Mianus Plays Showtunes"?
"Covered by Mianus"?

"Mianus Plays Showtunes"?
"Covered by Mianus"?

"One night in Mianus"
"Mianus got the best of me"
"The train out of Mianus"
"There once was a girl from Mianus"

This is getting to sound a lot like the movie penis game.

For those who aren't familar, you say a movie title and replace a word in the title with the word 'penis'.

Eg. Honey i shrank the penis.
The penis on Elm street.
Harry Potter and the penis of Azkaban.

etc

You owe me a new keyboard.

God, I hope you mean I made you laugh...

:D

"Mianus Plays Showtunes"?
"Covered by Mianus"?

You dont live in Mianus do you?

He's Maineiacs... you should know where he lives....

On an interesting side note, I looked it up on Google Earth, and apparently a river runs through Mianus, and there's a reservoir in Mianus.
"River Through Mianus"?
"Mianus is a Reservoir"?

No, but that does remind me of one we forgot:

"There's Plenty of Room in Mianus"

Is Mianus big? Have you ever been to Mianus?

How about "Iron Maiden" or "Black Sabbath" or even "Judas Priest"? They're all good names for bands!

Is Mianus big? Have you ever been to Mianus?

Mianus has it's own police department. :)

Name the band, and albums, after various NSers. *nod*

"Lunatic Goofballs" would be a great band name, too. Not for an emo/screamo band, though.

Emoband
Generock

"Cocks" (so that your fans, if you have any, will sometimes inadvertently say "I like Cocks," imagine the band T's)I had a similar idea with "Your Mom's Vagina"

I am always fond of the band names: Free Beer, No Cover or No Fat Chicks. Always fun to see the name up on the billboard of the pub or club.

They'll be screaming about Satan and how their parents never "get" them and cutting their wrist?
How 'bout Nirvana? I hear Kurt Cobain isn't using it anymore...

Agonistic Front.

how about something catchy like T.P.T. (Ten pound turd)..... The kids will love it.

Maybe ZOMG!

That is excellent.

Well if you are going to do this emu music how about The Rod Hull Experience? If not what about Myrth or Option 9.

Is crime low in Mianus?

Lolwut?! I think you should go with something along the lines of "BAWWW!" because that's what all of your "music" will no doubt sound like.

I'm half surpised there isn't already a band called this. It'd be good for a punk band. "Undead" was a nice touch.

nevermind there already is one

I eat emos for breakfast.

I dunno what you want to call yourself, but the official name for my band(Read: 4 Guys who end up eating fries instead of practising) is D sus2. hehe.

Call it 'We're so unimaginative that we had to ask a bunch of forumites what to call ourselves, and failed'.

Awesome.

Most kind. It just slipped out.

What's with all the emo music? I guess if you do it well, it's OK.

Thanks again.

"Paper Street Soap" (if you don't get the reference, you basically suck)

Trust me, there's nothing basic about how I suck.

You, however, have got a serious arrogance problem if you truly think that not knowing an obscure reference means that someone is somehow inferior. This is why fanboys are abhorrent creatures.

The one you all forgot, and I'm almost ashamed of you, is probably on the road sign at the Mianus city limits:

ENTERING MIANUS.

Seriously, guys, major dropped ball there. ;)

I didn't Google it for fear that there was going to be something with that name already and then I'd get accused of pilfering it. I got lucky!

I'm not a fanboy. I've seen that movie in its entirety once. At his probable age, though, he should get the reference. I don't claim to be vastly superior to anyone, I just expect people to retain a little bit of knowledge. If you think getting that reference makes someone a fanboy, you're the one with an arrogance problem.
