steventangent Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 A kid I work with was just talking about her friends in the band Crown The Empire. That right there is a silly ass band name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korgull Of Morgoth Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Late '90s/early '00s were a bad time for metalcore band names. Everyone wanted to be profound and meaningful: Hopesfall As Hope Dies As I Lay Dying Hope Die Last From Autumn To Ashes Between The Buried And Me A Life Once Lost Just look at the Wikipedia entry for the american Hellfest festival and you'll be overwhelmed by douche chills vibes. Too bad it is just getting worse. In the same time frame everyone was plotting and scheming, undermining this and that: Hope Conspiracy Cavalera Conspiracy International Noise Conspiracy Cancer Conspiracy Snake River Conspiracy Conspiracy Assassins Wellwater Conspiracy. I would also tend not to check out any band that has the words Theory, Club or Music in their names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I saw As Hope Dies once. It might have been If Hope Dies though, I have no idea. I remember going through the "Metalcore" music tag on myspace back in like 2004 just to look at band names because it was always a laugh riot. Early 2000s ALOL and BTBAM were both awesome though.

jvphotoandvideo Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 When you think about it, so many goddamn bands exist now, that it's hard to come up with a good name that hasn't been taken. I've screwed around with the idea of coming up with a band name and almost every idea I came up with was taken by somebody. I really have to give a band props for coming up with something good. Savages comes to mind. Fucking cool name. Also, I know this band has been mentioned since the start of the thread, and one of their videos have been posted up, but we should challenge ourselves. If you can get through this whole video, you must be deaf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caninesapien Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I only just found out about a band called Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate). That name is more than enough to put me off them for life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Still waiting for someone to explain how any band doesn't have a stupid name. They're all inherently stupid. eight1echo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all inherently stupid. bands with "band" in the name, are not inherently stupid. KC and the Sunshine Band, for example! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if it was just KC and the Band, Sunshine makes it stupid. The Dave Matthews Band is the only non-stupid band name, someone challenge me.

Bladewillisisdead Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 The Band is actually the only non-stupid band name. And even that's pretty stupid. kjkenney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aflycon Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I don't know if it will ever definitively be verified as true, but the story about Keith Moon saying John Bonham and Jimmy Page playing together would "go over like a lead zeppelin" has always endeared the name Led Zeppelin to me, considering how they went on to become a musical superpower. In most cases, though, I think Shelbs is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
