So me and my friend are starting a band and we've been struggeling with what to name said band.  Help us out by ranking these names on a scale of 1-10 (feedback also appreciated).  We are a two piece and we will be launching our world tour sometime after the 1st of January.

1. Sexual Ciggaretts
2. Dishwater Cheese
3. My Relationship With The Clock

Thanks,

Brian

I like "Heavier than Air" but I think Led Zepplin cornered that market already.

its funny sounding and doesnt sound too much like a hardcore/emo's band's name written in cursive with a black background with crows and black roses littered around it.
You can almost just pick out which genre of music this is by name:

examples:
Falling Angels
Less than Perfect
June Sets Fire
My Last Mistake
Trading Yesterday
From Autumn to Ashes
With Broken Wings
Passion dripping from the coyote's eyes,
He can taste his blood,
An' blood never lies,
Pale face die. - Kiedis

a couple of my friends may have bet you to it but I think a great name for a band would be Happy Birthday, Pervert.  Or Rasputin's Crush is a good one too.

What kind of music will you be playing, that's important to know.

Well, if you don't name the band that, you at least need to have a song called "This song never really got going".

I always liked the name McBand.

Those are both stellar.  "Happy Birthday, Pervert" has all kinds of potential.

Ok, as for what kind of music we will be playing.  I can play a little guitar and I have this highly awesome phaser peddle that I like to get funky with  and I also do some crazy ass amospheric shit on a casio keyboard and he can sing.  He is really good at impersonating people, and singing like Dave Matthews, or what he calls "the bing bong bing bockady bing" style of delivery and Eddie Vedder "the dying cow " style of delivery, unfortunatly we have completly diffrent taste in music.  Which could cause some turmoil within the band when we go to pick out some kick ass covers to do.  I am sure as fuck not covering Dream Theater or Quensriech, and he won't even consider Mogwai or Sonic Youth.  We are in the market for a Theramin which will without a doubt become the cornerstone of our band once in our possession.  We need a drummer if anyone is interested.

Killer descriptions. What would you call his style of singing? There's a potential band name there.... :)

Also, I am a fan of Hey Girl.

I love this thread.  I could have quoted 8 things that made me laugh.

How about Theraminless?

Hey Girl takes my vote.

Also, Brian, if your world tour begins after January 1st, please consider me as an opening act.  Thanks. xo

Well, I already contacted Jim to see if the Jacket wanted to open for us but if that falls through then I'm really going to push for you.  I'll just have to talk to Danny and see what he says.  We are a democratic band, which is why it's really important that we find a drummer, Danny and I seem to keep canceling each others votes out and then we just sit around and glare at each other.
