    i always hated that name

    they have a silly band name, but those dudes are nice guys.

    Most the band names in the weekly music paper make me cringe...

    They are usually made up of a Noun, a verb, an adjective, a day of the week and/or a bodily function.

  • Saliva

    Bush (wtf?)

    chk chk chk (how the fuck do you say that? real words have vowels)

    I have been contemplating opening a service similar to the website name assingment deal. All bands would be required to submit their name to my organization (with some context info if necessary) and then we would make a determination up or down. I think It would be fun to send out a form letter for rejections.

    Dear Hoobastank, your name sucks. We're sorry but we have rejected your request for this name. You'll have go back to the drawingboard. After listening to your demo might we suggest American Garbage.

    Man, we forgot about friggin' DESTINY'S CHILD. Way back when, I thought they were gonna be laughed out the door with a goofy-ass name like that. Shows how much I know.

  • pretty much any neo-hardcore band name sucks but

    scary kids scaring kids

    wins the cake


    on that note i always thought atreyu was a great name for a band, but the music itself is garbage.

    Nah, but I was doing the college radio thing when their first EP came out, and everyone played the hell out of it.

    Interesting side note: I did date a girl from MI who dumped me for a guy in either that band or another obnoxiously twee band from the area. I didn't feel like putting a lot of effort into finding out the details on that one though.
