Names for rock bands

I was on TVTropes and The Kingdom Of Loathing at the same time when I started thinking about what would make a good name for a rock band, and these are the ones I found/came up with:
Ambidextrous Funkslingers
The Banshee Librarians
Cursed Ink
War Hippy Fatigues
Heavy Motion
Steel Wind
California Heat

Any others?

^Those are awesome I have a few...

Endoplasmic Reticulum (for a rock band)
The Phalanges Dancers (for a hip-hop group)

...yeah...

Ostentatious by Nature.
Parking for Bagpipes.

I would totally see Parking for Bagpipes.
I forgot Galaxative.

my cousin and I were gonna start a band and call it parking for bagpipes. We stole it from a sign we saw at a Scottish store.

A friend and I came up with that one years ago, when we needed a team name. We decided it would be a fantastic band name when Rock Band came out. Furthermore, I have decided that their hit single will be "Smooth Cosmos".

I still agree with a Dave Barry column I read once: "Flaming Booty Moths" would be a great name for a rock band. xD And so would "Nostril Nuns".

One of my favorite bands is called "Stolen Babies." Best name ever if you ask me. You know those things people hang in those windows that say "Baby on Board?" I have a bumper sticker that says "Stolen Babies on Board."

Oh, and here's what I came up with:

American Grapefruit
Glovebox Artillery
Semierotic
Something in my Trunk is Screaming (maybe that's more of a song title)

I like Glove box Artillery that's a pretty sick name

The Phalanges Dancers, oh no you didn't hahaha
thats the best

i've always wanted a band called The Lonely Porkupines

lets see...

really itchy sweaters
man fetus
Pep Pep and Nana
the melodic molecules
out of business
hand that rocks the cradle fish

Oh wow I didn't even think of it like that...

And wow, people can think of some really cool band names~

Hmmmmmmm


Generic Garage Band
Sindarian Elves
Girl Vampires Screaming
Kirika & The Assassins

And one for YU+ME

Lia's Lament

Back in high school, I and a few of my buddies were going to start a band. Something so epic deserves italics and, of course, a kickass band name. I sat down one day trying to come up with some possibilities, and almost immediately I crafted Nature's Mishap.

I also wrote down a few other piddling excuses for band names for the others to choose from, but they loved Nature's Mishap right off the bat and the rest weren't even a consideration. Though we never did end up actually starting a band, we've used the NM name for various other ventures over the intervening years.

More recently, I took part in a little forum game that involved making random album covers. I don't remember the exact rules, but it involved using random selectors on Wikipedia, a quote database, and an image repository. I ended up with:



Which I thought was pretty cool.

I liked "Dingos Ate My Baby"

Back many years ago when I was thinking of forming a band, I thought "Roy G Biv" sounded good, with the title of the first album being "Extra Sensory Conception".

Back at school, me and some mates tried to get a few songs together under the name of "Name: Pending". We weren't exactly successful...

There is a nifty band name generator at this site http://www.elsewhere.org/bandname/. They also do a postmodernism article generator (to make articles in postmodernist jargon, which mean absolutely nothing). It is pretty nifty.

Teapot in drag?

I named one of the boy bands in a comic I wrote "Good boys wear short skirts", but that's a bit long, mm?

I thought Sacred Syllable was cool

I came up with an epic metal band name a few years back, which sprang to mind since I've been playing Brutal Legend as of recently. It's a freaking awesome game by the way. Anyways:

Name: Grievous Bodily Harm, Blunt Force Trauma and Pretty Concussive Colors Inflicted Upon Your Brain: The Screaming Exploder Skull-Monkey Zombie Hoard vs The Massive Destructive Death Machine Robot Ninja Army Apocalypse Project

or GBHBFTPCCIUBTSESMZHVTMDDMRNAAP for short.

Man, searching for them on the Internet would be a bitch....

Genre: A mix up of Melodic Death Metal and Epic Speed Metal. All the songs will be an ode and homage to the disposable mook.

Unfortunately that band name doesn't quite fit in the allotted name space on Rock Band.
