rufinthefury
06.28.19 | Casualties of Cool is a great choice. love that project but i never remember its name lmao |

Egarran
06.28.19 | Elbow. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.28.19 | Casualties of Cool always stuck with me as a name, weird
H@ts on the V@t (alternative dance/post punk)
Your Father's Favourite Foxskin Snood (lo-fi indie) |
Daisy99
06.28.19 | is using verb the noun cheating
cause literally all of these bands beside a few but anyway
Dad's Closet (indie rock/emo thats signed to Run for Cover records)
also interesting, Death Grips always stuck out to me as a really good name which was easy to remember and associate with the band |
Demon of the Fall
06.28.19 | I like Death Grips as I automatically associate it with being 'in the grip of death', perhaps it's intentional, perhaps not. |
butt.
06.28.19 | yeah Death Grips is great.
The one I always forget is Typhoon (indie/folk). Great band, but goddamn I forget that meaningless name every time |
butt.
06.28.19 | oh I also hate every person/band who just takes a celebrity and switches around the initials, like Com Truise. It's old. Stop doing it. |
Daisy99
06.28.19 | or also
Eleventh to First (metalcore/numetal)
thats even worse than verb the noun |
zakalwe
06.28.19 | I’m going for Car Keys |
butt.
06.28.19 | "Eleventh to First" what the fuuuuck is that name. they need to break up asap |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.28.19 | Eleventh to First is fantastic but also too dreadful to be forgettable |
bloc
06.28.19 | Omg these made up band names are brilliant, I can totally imagine them |
DoofDoof
06.28.19 | The Walkabouts
Bonny Doon
Drenge
Silversun Pickups
Silver Sun
Feeder
Are existing forgettable names.
My made up name:
Upstate Family
Literally no idea if they’d be folk, indie or hip hop - that’s how boring the name is. But it sounds strangely ‘on trend’ all the same...they're gonna be a hit! |
bloc
06.28.19 | For existing names The The and The Band come to mind |
DoofDoof
06.28.19 | The The is a bit too quirky as a band name no? |
Demon of the Fall
06.28.19 | There’s also The Music. Wow, inventive.
The The is ridiculous. |
bloc
06.28.19 | Good luck trying to find torrents for those bands lol |

Demon of the Fall
06.28.19 | Yeah, stupid choice, unless you really don’t want to be found for some reason. You should be able to Google an artist name and get relevant results.
What about !!!, that’s another silly name. Pronounced ‘chk chk chk’ apparently, I mean, wtf? Come to think of it that should be a band, like ‘LMFAO’ lmfao indeed. |
Trebor.
06.28.19 | yo you're supposed to make up names lol
and I just put albums I like for the list, not forgettable names |
PunchforPunch
06.28.19 | Should've gone with Grim Shadow instead of Vor'lok |

Masochist
06.28.19 | There's a band called The Feeling. They had a mild hit with their song "Sewn." I loved that song at a very particular time in my life, but now can never ever remember the band name despite them being in my library.
Beach House is another one. Though I like Beach House a lot, I get their name wrong a lot, often calling them by their album name, 'Depression Cherry'
Audioslave as a name isn't "forgettable," per se...it is just the most boring and bland band name I've ever heard a mainstream band take on.
As for fictional band names, here are my entries:
- Mistake (an emocore band)
- The Rivals (an 80's revival band) |
bloc
06.28.19 | Lol I totally forgot about !!! yeah those guys can burn in hell |
bloc
06.28.19 | Oh yeah and The 1975 is just awful. Any name with a year in it, really |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.28.19 | The 1975 are generally awful yes :[
Far as real bands are concerned, . . . . . . . . . takes the cake |
