inner turmoil

alot of rock bands are like a verb then a number or letter
"Blink182"
"Sum 41"
then there are some one word ones. Most of the good ones are taken tho.
Evanescence found their name by looking through the dictionary. Maybe you want a name that means something to you. Evanescence means "To dissipate, or dissapear like water vapour." this describes them well...

ah well that probably didnt help, but im bored so im rabling :D

Tut tut, Im appalled... Nah, most of the time though, number names are just pointless and irritating. Its just like on AIM or summat when people cant have the name they want so they just stick numbers on the end. It annoys me.

Fenixpunk 11-11-2005 01:48 PM

yeah, i know what ya mean..our name was Section 8 - which is the discharge code in the military when you go insane...or cheap welfare houses we later learned.

edit: also this was 11 years ago before number names were everywhere...

sleepy jack 11-11-2005 01:50 PM

Number names suck seriously all the bands with numbers came out during that MTV punk takeover.

Eve 6
Blink 182
Sum 41


I was really shocked that green day didnt become "green day 86"

Merkaba 11-11-2005 01:53 PM

Glass Dove
Gauntlet Run
Centurion
Sequential Surge

:shycouch: sorry if it isn't what you're looking for.

Fenixpunk 11-11-2005 01:53 PM

blink 182 were originally just "blink" but there was another band with that name so they added the "182" which is the police code for indecent exposure.

Regardless its not trendy anymore and its ghey.

Fenixpunk 11-11-2005 01:58 PM

ya, when we formed our last band we wanted to stay away from the numbers because every band seemed to have one...so we went with a "the" band which at the time was used by either really old bands or not well known bands and low and behold new ones started coming out..theyre everywhere now. I still think you can get away easier with "the" than a number though.

blackTshirt 11-11-2005 02:44 PM

numbers suck
i think
like at least spell it, don't go like rockers69
cause there's only one thing suckier than that
and that is babygurl69

That's not sad. My band already had a name when I joined. If I formed a new one however, I can assure you it would be at least three words long - ideally it would be a full sentence and everybody who heard it would either laugh loudly or screw up their face in utter confusion. Maybe none of these names do that yet, the quest continues.

One of my lab mates just saw the list. He says that 'The Vicars Knickers' is one of the best band names he's ever heard. Feel free to pilfer.

madeinNY 11-24-2005 08:00 AM

^^We should have a thread to come up with the most screwed up/hysterical band name...yes.

DontRunMeOver 11-24-2005 08:02 AM
