thinking about going with "ferrous". whatchy'all think?

what genre you lookin to make?

read books

>>73840172
And More...

That way you will always be on the venue lists :^)

don't do that

HIGH PRIORITY: memorable, not already taken

MEDIUM PRIORITY: evocative of the music you make

AVOID: cliches (unless you are subverting them in ways you are very sure are clever), basically anything you think you might regret in 10 years

pull out a dictionary, turn to a random page, pick a random word, repeat as many times as needed, done

Anal _____

experimental rock...? the music borrows from many genres but it's centered around jazz guitar, pop vocals and a lot of sampling

_______ Chrysanthemum

>>73840637
I do sometimes, why would this help though?

>>73840686
yeah idk. it's not taken but I wonder if that's for good reason

>>73840691
good tip

>>73840718
I've been doing this but for some reason nothing sticks. maybe I'm being too picky

>>73840775
>>73840731
mmmm, smells like Anal Chrysanthemum

>>73840750
The Snazz

>>73840750
the Speed Bumps

Potatoato

But in all seriosness just find 2 or 3 words that feel nice next to eachother, like Bartholomew Fulp Fleischer, or syncronized seagul sensation????????????????

>>73840172
I prefer short names like Rush, Yes, DEVO, Wire. I feel like they are unique, even being only one word.

>>73840172
I just took the names of two different birds and put them together. Maybe you could try something similar, you just have to make it roll off the tongue. Like if you wanted to do the same with fish you could do "Pike Pallock" of something

>>73840172
try something a bit lighthearted
think 'Peaches' and 'Cap'n Jazz', not 'The World Is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die'

>>73840750
if it's experimental rock call the band theoretical lithologies. Geophysicist here.
