Unwanted band names

[instantjuggler]

if you have any extra band names floating around, could you please post them in this thread? i've been trying to name a new project for the past 13 months and now production starts next week. i got nothing. i'll post my failed attempts here from the studio in a few days....

Haha, are you sure?!? We had plenty, but probably not what you are looking for!

Turboduck2000
Eyes of Ibad (dune reference)
Willows
skylights
sil
civilian:slave
Inflatable Love Foundation
peace
Carry the martyr
Quellcrist Falconer (Political Activist in Takeshi Kovacs series of novels by Richard K Morgan)

Do you have any hints at what you are doing musically? That may help the good people of this realm come up with ideas?

[madeofoak]

Drone Mogul
Mindfulness-Based
Alfpaca

[glia]

Quellcrist Falconer

Quelle Chris

always thought his name was weird but didnt know it was a literary referance

[instantjuggler]

thanks for the list!! so the project includes custom locked groove records on 4 turntables with an effects mixer and a live organist. who's really really good at playing the organ. and also found sound collage via cassette tapes.

i guess one of our main concerns is that the name can be easily read and pronounced by non-native english speakers as well. but at this point its super fun to hear any and all unused or discarded ideas by others, in case it sparks something else more relevant.

excellent consideration

[carvingcode]

How about 'Wurlygig'?

[steveoath]

If you're into Cyberpunked, noir-ish, pseudo-political sci fi then look up the Takeshi Kovacs books. Really good. Get weirder with each follow up. Sadly Morgan has said that is pretty much the end for the series

Remember the band and number fad of the 90's?

there is a band name generator site (which i used to torment my partner with by reading out loud the most ridiculous suggestions) but once in a while it did generate something half not bad, i actually saved some i liked, here they are:

Dangerous Beard

A few more from another list I was keeping:
