Music Blog name

mrguy · 03-03-2010, 10:28 PM

I'm thinking of starting a Music Blog.
What would be some good names?

Also, I expect this thread will get stupid replies, but I hope not.

Thanks in advance

That's not a bad idea... but I want people to find it on google by accident, rather than me telling people about it....

you should take a popular web address and switch up two letters. try musibcanter.com yahho, or something along those lines. Make it very flashy so that once they arrive, they are sucked in for life. or yopu could just create your own journal on this site, and not have to worry about attractuing people, because this is the greatest music forum you will ever find.

It might help if you gave some idea of the stuff you're going to put in this blog.

I mean there's no point suggesting calling your blog '1000 rotting mutilated corpses' if you're starting a blog dedicated to twee indie pop, is there?

It would mainly be about less commercial stuff (I like post rock/prog), but I would give a few opinions on the commercial music scene...
Names I've thought of so far

between the headphones
The beat
Groove factory
Music factory
the sound if Muzak.

Any takers?

Oh, and I wouldn't limit myself specifically to rock.
I might talk about some Dutch hip hop band. One reason for me to do this is to broaden my music taste.

I think that makes perfect sense. =D

Go to one of those band name generators all over the web and spend some time generating names. You might come across something that sparks an idea. (It would work in this scenario, because it's pretty random, but coherent in a creative way)

Just google: band name generator.
Try to find one that lets you use at least three words.

I also came across a pretty fun thing in sort of the same vein, and if I remember correctly, it was called phrase generator or something to that effect. It let you choose up to 5 words I think, and the type of word each generation would be.. ie. Verb, adverb, etc.
That might get some additional ideas rolling and REALLY helps with creativity when you match unconventional word types.
