I always thought using the name “Fine Upstanding College Kids” would be good.
Of course, the name is so long you could only fit the first letters of each word of the name on the drum’s face. That wouldn’t be a problem, would it?
I’ll say it again (even though some people are probably about to strangle me), if I had a band it would be either: Funk Pudding, The String Samurais, or Blood of Heroes.
Some other names I like: The Saint-Sinners, Boondock Saints, Berserker, Begbie’s Mates, and Girth Mobile.
Some cool real band names:
Satanic Surfers
No Use For A Name
Dick Delicious & the Tasty Testicles
Sleeping with Jesus
The Pigeon Ho Principle
Christrocket
Pumping Lemma
There’s a Dutch band with a pretty cool name:
BZN (pronounced Bay-Sed-En)
which stands for:
Bande Zonde Naam (Coldfire can correct the spelling)
which means:
Band Without a Name

Some friends of mine have a band called Middle Finger. They are pretty good, imho.
There is also a band call Anal cunt which another guy I know likes. He has their albums and stuff. I have heard of a Band call Alabama Thunderpussy, I dunno if it is the same one that Mjollnir mentioned.
Other band names:
Raging Speedhorn
And you will know us by the trail of dead

And, apparently, there is a rock label called “I used to fuck people like you in prison” It was mentioned on a radio show a while ago as signing a rock act (can’t remember the name.

Band Zonder Naam. We’re a fun bunch, we also have the Zangeres Zonder Naam. I’m sure you’ll figure it out.
BZN are from Volendam (that’s the town where the huge bar-fire was on new years eve, remember that?). Volendam is a harbour city on the IJselmeer, or “Yssel Lake”. Large fishing industry. Bands from Volendam are referred to as Paling Pop, or “Eal Pop”.
And it’s hideous, I tell you. Ugh.

Hey, HalberMensch242, like Industrial Noise much?
BTW, IIRC it’s “Scraping Foetus From the Wheel,” “Nurse With Wound,” and “Einsturzende Neubauten.” I’d figure you’d get the last right, at least

Well, yeah, but as they’re the only “Eel Pop” band I know, I find them unique and… interesting, and… uhhm… actually, kinda fun, in small doses.
