I need help re-naming my band! Serious suggestions please?
 
We're a heavy grunge/metal band, taking key influences from The Pixies, The Melvins, Alice in Chains, Nirvana etc.
Our current name is Black Cash, but I want to rename us due to overuse of that name.

We need a Mudhoney, Screaming Trees, Alice in Chains esque name...
Any serious suggestions?

Janszoon 09-20-2008 06:33 AM

Screaming Mud Chains?

mr dave 09-20-2008 08:36 AM

are you gigging for money yet?

if not go with the butthole surfers method. get a collection of names and keep using a different one at random until someone gives you money to perform.

Go rape your mother, you douche. We cover no Nirvana songs, but we appreciate them musically but prefer the less pop side of alternative. So go **** yourself!

We have been offered money, but we've had no full on band name that is unique to us so... idk...

MySpace.com - Black Cash (demo out soon) - Brynmawr / Ebbw Vale, UK - Punk / Rock / Metal - www.myspace.com/blackcashmusic

We've got a cover song up that was recorded in about 2 hours... we're not releasing a full EP album until January/Febuary.

I liked Ethan's idea personally, but it's obviously based off Death Cab For Cutie.

Do you really need to be told about this kind of thing AGAIN?

Wifey Boozer 09-20-2008 09:21 PM

I actually liked Thrice's "Class A Cigaretees", it's just got leaps and bunches of class. Tres ironic for a metal-y band. Shexy.

Yeah, Thrice had a few interesting ones that perked my interest... they're being considered, but Im backing down as vocalist now, because I was only ever a stand in and now we're full on looking for a vocalist.

Free download of a cover of ours on our myspace.com/blackcashmusic but Im singing, and I can't sing. I was only ever meant to stand in.

Your voice is fine, as long as it isn't that roaring black metal voice, or wildly off-key, I like pretty much any voice.

sleepy jack 09-21-2008 05:23 PM

We'll be the Led Zeppelin of the alternative world.

jackhammer 09-21-2008 05:30 PM

Without the hair though :(

sleepy jack 09-21-2008 05:32 PM

It's okay we're an alternative band. We just need argyle sweaters and horn-rimmed glasses.

sweet_nothing 09-21-2008 05:39 PM

jackhammer 09-21-2008 05:41 PM
