Real names was the intention I believe although Zefan, at least, has also given some made up band names.

Well back in the day i was riding the drummer out of the waxworks dummys x girlfriend , once he had finished with her of course

Converge · 19 Mar 2007 at 18:39

Mastodon is a good name, sums up the band perfectly in terms of heaviness.
Cult of Luna is a cool name, as is Converge.

i haven't heard their music but i did hear john peel mention a band called 'scrotum grinder' once. i'm sure they make the sort of music your granny would like.

Not actually a real band, Chris Morris invented them for an episode of Brass Eye but it made me giggle.

Good thread

That is an absolutely dire name for an absolutely dire band. I saw them supporting the Chillis at the Madejski Stadium and they were so bad. Practically got boo'd offstage once they'd finished. I almost felt sorry for them.

Why someone would come up with a name that you cant pronounce is beyond me. It took the guy 5 minutes to introduce themselves ("Hey we are *points 3 times at the big sign*, or cho cho cho! or bam bam bam!"). So cringeworthy. You'd feel like a prat suggesting to a friend to go listen to them, wouldnt you?
