Band names, I know it's probably been done to death, but while there's SEVENTY THREE people online, I'd like some opinions/advise on the subject of band names.
Any suggestions are more than welcome (Can't get past Black Girl Adventure at the moment - although I'm told it has "horrendous connotations") How important is the name of the band? How seriously should bands take it when choosing a name?

Lame hardcore shock-tactic names are the funniest. How about:
The Rapists
Re: Advise
Re: Advise
Wouldn't that be the whole point of calling your band The Rapists? If it doesn't piss someone off, it's not a good name ;)
Re: Advise
Didn't go down to well (scuse the pun)
Re: Advise
I am hardly offended by anything, but I am acutely aware that others may be upset, sometimes not cos they are prudish or stuck up or the establishment, but because of unfortunate events. Its like calling your band the Nazi Party, ...I'm not upset, by that, but is that a good idea?.....its fine to be rock n roll and stick two fingers up at the establishment and censorship, but lets face it, there is now very little absolute censorship of actual words.
Re: Advise
Re: Advise
The others you've listed sound quite dark / moody, is your music dark n moody?
Re: Advise
Sorry If I am probably showing the same prudishness that I did in the recent joke thread......I think having kids has made me a bit of a prude.

It's the name of the pub in Withnail and I, so you have a nice little story to go with it. I was going to call my band this, but I'm not now so feel free....if you like it that is.
