01.31.17 | There's a Twilight Zone episode called "Number 12 Looks Just Like You". |
ArsMoriendi

Trebor.
01.31.17 | Issues and Woe, is Me are awful |
Trebor.
01.31.17 | lol yeah Number 12 is named after a sick Twilight Zone ep and therefore not terrible |
WeinerMan
01.31.17 | I don't really think it's terribly just a little nonsensical if you're not aware of that episode. What is it supposed to mean in the show? |
dbizzles
01.31.17 | Gotta research that Twilight Zone episode to find out the meaning of it's title then. BRB. |
Nazzadan
01.31.17 | Basically if it has punctuation and is 4 words or longer it is terrible, at that point the onus is on the band to not be as garbage as their name. |
SteakByrnes
01.31.17 | I, The Breather is a great band but I agree that their name is a little silly.
Motionless In White I always thought was a terrible band name |
JeetJeet
01.31.17 | Miss May I |
Trebor.
01.31.17 | On the other end of the spectrum, God Forbid is a great name |
WeinerMan
01.31.17 | damn i forgot about arsonists |
Trebor.
01.31.17 | Number 12 is top tier Twilight Zone, it inspired the Black Mirror episode Fifteen Million Merits as well |

01.31.17 | In regards to The Number 12 Looks Just Like You, from wikipedia:
'In a future society, all young adults go through a process known as "The Transformation," in which each person's body and face are changed to mimic a physically attractive design chosen from a small selection of numbered models. The process gives everyone a beautiful appearance.... [after the transformation] Marilyn reappears, looking and thinking exactly like her best friend Valerie. "And the nicest part of all, Val," she gushes, "I look just like you!"'
From what I read on a blog, there is a model in the episode know as Model 12, so... yeah, stuff. |

01.31.17 | "Anything with kids in the name."
Ayy, fuk u dude, one of the names my friend and i were considering for our band was Rickshaw Kids lol. We're not a metalcore band though. |
bgillesp

Spec
01.31.17 | If it has kids in the name then you probs should be a metalcore band my dude. |
dbizzles
01.31.17 | HORSE the Band is an awesome name. They also announced a tour. Seeing them in PHX in March. 1 - 2 - 3! |
Deathconscious
01.31.17 | well we were going to go with Rickshaw Wreck but that sounds more like a punk band or some shit. |
Calc
01.31.17 | nvm. |
bentheREDfan
01.31.17 | I agree with everything here but 1 and 6 |
ScuroFantasma
01.31.17 | For some reason I like the name We Butter the Bread With Butter, it's so redundant and weird. |

BlazinBlitzer
02.01.17 | "Norma Jean is a kinda dumb name" I thought those guys were like some female indie pop singer based on the name.
Bad Metalcore Names: Burnt by the Sun, Burning Down Alaska, Heaven Shall Burn, anything with the word "burn" in the title of a metalcore band. |
betray

02.01.17 | I actually think Converge is one of the cooler band names. Miss May I is terrible tho. |
calmrose
02.01.17 | Converge rules as a band name |

Joeman82
02.01.17 | The name "Norma Jean" honestly sounds like a pop artist from the 1920s |
calmrose
02.01.17 | Norma Jean derived their name from Marilyn Monroe, whose birth name was Norma Jeane Mortenson |

'there's a band that's honestly called Slice the Cake?'
Apparently some people around here think they are pretty good too. I couldn't will myself to even check them out based on the name and that's sad. |
