You know.. YOu think you have a band name all picked out and then you look it up on like Artist Direct and there's already three bands trying to hold that name... Bah Hum Bug.. and yes the name Arson is plain and sucks.

We've gone with Stryct9 althought...

My friend that I asked this question to and showed her the post said "You Know.. Pregnant Virgins would work and sounds pretty good.. You can make me won but then I'd just be pregnant and not really a virgin ya think?"

"Anal Intruder."

That's the name of an actual anal sex-toy.

As was already said -- picking a name can be one of the hardest, yet most important aspects of forming a band. You want something unique and memorable and I always liked to pick something that I could equate with some kind of logo. Hmmmm...wonder what kind of logo you would have if your name was Anal Intruder?

Mmmm, still better than our band name, which, at the moment, is Koffieklep (translated from Dutch "Coffee lid"). No, it doesn't mean anything, it's total nonsense, and it makes people think your some crappy band. But that's the beauty of it, when you play, you surprise people (then again, who will show up if people think you're crap, right?)

anal intruder... pure genious...

my guitarist insisted that we call our band "dante", after some comic-book character or something... it sounds like a goth-metal band, when we really play an amalgamation of post-rock/funk/ska... bloody guitarists...

i eventually convinced him to change it, after we had the piss ripped from within us by every sound guy we've played with... we're now called "Mostly Harmless", a bit of douglas adams creeping in there... sadly i couldn't convince the band that "the personal injury specialists" was indeed the world's finest name...

btw, there is a copyright on that name for when i brainwash the guitarist, so try not to steal it...

I'm still waiting for someone to take up my band name suggestion of "The Flourescent Load-Bearing Canteloupes."

Unfortunately, common sense seems to have prevailed so far.

I used to be in a band called "Our Son the Arsonist"... the guitarist went on to another band called "Amplified Sun".
We sucked! Ah, Memories!
