Any Good/great Band Names Out There

What are some good band names? Names you make up.

NirvanaIt is an ancient Sanskrit term used in Indian religions to describe the profound peace of mind that is acquired with moksha (liberation). In shramanic thought, it is the state of being free from suffering. In Hindu philosophy, it is union with the Brahman (Supreme Being).The word literally means "blown out" (as in a candle) and refers, in the Buddhist context, to the imperturbable stillness of mind after the fires of desire, aversion, and delusion have been finally extinguished.Q: What Kurt Cobain thought about the name?A:  Kurt Cobain, band's lead singer and songwriter, described it straight as "freedom from pain and suffering in the external world"**During its initial months, the band went through a series of names, starting with Skid Row and including Pen Cap Chew, Bliss, and Ted Ed Fred. The group finally settled on Nirvana, which Kurt Cobain said was chosen because "I wanted a name that was kind of beautiful or nice and pretty instead of a mean, raunchy punk name."That's why i believe it's a beautiful name.

What is a good name for a jazz band?

So sorry, misread the post, how about "Tsunami"?

The list below is when this one thought you wanted a list of some very good artist in the style of jazz.

The Mahavishnu Orchestra with John Mclaughlin on guitar (wow!), the Jan Hammer Group, Pat Matheny and Tony Williams, Weather Report with Joco Pastoris, Joseph Zaniwul and Wayne Shorter, the Miles Davis!

for something a bit more mellow, Antonio Carlos Jobim (Brasillian Jazz)

What are some good band names that aren't taken?

In case you need to know the band is kind of going to be like Escape The Fate or Asking Alexandria. Don't ask how am i going to make a band if i can't even find a band name cause i don't like picking names. Please don't use anything that resembles another band like Memphis May Fire or something else and change it. I don't want people in my school thinking I'm trying to be exactly like any other bands. I've been thinking or what the lyrics will be about. My ideas is that it will be about bullying, cutting, suicide, drugs and things like that. Some of the songs are going to have screaming in it. I know that some type of screams will mess up your voice. I know that making a band will be hard but im willing to try. I've been wanting to make a band or join one for awhile.

What are some great band names that just never lived up to their awesome name?

Imagine you are performing in a band that plays a specific subgenre of music, playing a festival with several other similar bands.So how do you stand out on the bill?H'mmmmIt's a shame that that level of wit didn't extend to Party Cannon's music. It's the same old harsh vocals, downtuned distorted guitars and blast beat nonsense that hundreds of other bands make too. No circus music interludes or comedy noises to break up the relentless grind.Their music just isn't …fun.Ah well.Duct Taped To A Flag PolePerhaps the band do exhibit Wildean wit and party hardy joyousness in their lyrics, but it is kind of hard to tell.

What are some good legal-themed band names for a punk/ hard rock band founded by a lawyer ($50 Reward if used)?

Hello, The T-Tones (lousy temporary name), a fun-punk/ hard rock band, recently recorded a full-length album and needs to find a much better band name. We're offering $50 and a copy of our forthcoming cd to whoever comes up us with a band name that we use.

The band founder is a lawyer and something related to the legal field may make for a good band name. It doesn't have to be a literal term, an abstraction or play on words can work too. Humor, originality, and cleverness is encouraged. Submit as many names as you'd like, and the band will contact you if your idea is used. Reply here or send ideas to: unlamebandname@gmail.com

http://www.myspace.com/morbidanalfog

fortunately, they are a joke band making fun of just how dumb most Black Metal is.


I am guessin Mr J <3 to be about 14?

Analcunt is about as stupid a name as one can conceive. As is Pig Destroyer
Cute is What we aim for
Shiny toy guns
Scary kids scaring kids
Archers of Loaf
HIM
Dragonforce
cattle decapitation
hinder
Panic at the Disco
Snow Patrol
gayosin...oops...saosin
Agoraphobic Nosebleed
Bolt Thrower (I loved the band..but the name is kinda dumb)
CockandBall Torture
General Surgery
Enewetak
Electro Hippies
Phantomsmasher
Torsof*ck

Lets also not leave out bands we may love..but have questionable "Cool" names in reality, like Metallica, Tigers of Pan Tang, etc.

Metal in general has a little too much teenage testosterone in the names sometimes.


And pretty much any Black Metal band where the band or members take their names from Dungeons and Dragons or World of Warcraft. Instead of Gorgoroth, and Band Members like Nergal or HellHammer actually sounding cool...they sound like desperate teenage boys TRYING to sound bad.

Of course..that also describes most Black Metal (not all mind you, just most) in a nutshell.... so go figure, right?

but one of my all time favorite band names is: F**k the Facts. Profane and lowbrow...but sometimes I think we all feel like the title.

What is a good name for a smooth jazz band?
