(Made-uppie) Names to watch out for!

Got a problem naming your band?!?!?!?! Well, let Old Fart help you with a few suggestions!!!!!!

  • Vigilante Shipbuilders- a new Manics-style band!?!??!?!!?
  • VGA Videostars- for Daft Punksters!!!!!!!!!
  • Get Carter- some London indie band's probably already used this!!!!!
  • Uncle Bulgaria's Catflap- "quirky" Betaband type "experimental" "collective"!!!!!!!!!
  • Neo- hip band, obnoxious singer, "indie/dance" a la Republica, reference to The Matrix- what else would a band need to get a front cover on the NME?!??!?!?! (Well, apart from losing all the post-1977 references, obviously...)
  • Plank & Sprockets- ultra-credible UK "beat" DJ/Producer duo, currently sought out by Madonna for her next album!!!!!!!!!
  • F8-tah Liztik- ultra-hardcore "social realist" US rappy chappy!!!!!!
  • Clump- really doomy metal band!!!!!!!
  • The Herpes- scuzzy US NY punk band, to be feted by NME as the best band since the Beatles. Will no doubt react to the inevitable storm over their name by claiming it's really a misspelling of "The Hairpiece", and donning wigs!!!!!
  • 5-4-3-2-1 Blastov- Russian rapper!!!!!!!
  • Er, I'm out of ideas!!! (But when has that ever stopped people in the music industry!??!)
