Whenever I hear a cool phrase somewhere, I like to exclaim "That would make a cool band name". This page is a list of such names.
I can not verify whether these names have been taken yet or not. If your band happens to already use one of these names sorry. If you want to use a name you see here, you'll need to verify it's not already in use.

Smothered Infant | Well after listening to Dying Fetus, Cannibal Corpse, and various other death metal bands I decided that I had to come up with an outrageously disturbing name for my band in order to become somewhat popular. Smothered Infants is the kind of name that sticks with you... So that is what we might call our selves | Bill | ||

We started laughing and I thought that Snips would also be a cool band name. | dead | ||
Snoogans | Well, this was an idea for a name. We sit in math class and think of made up words and we came up with "Snoogans". By the way, it didn't fly. | Collin | ||
Snooper | I was once intrigued by a specific word that I had created over a conversation with my dearest friend, Walter Michaels Henry 2nd. He had informed me that he had exposed my drawer to his eyes. In conclusion, I held him accountable as a "Snooper". Therefore I conjecture that "Snoopers" would be an apporopriate "BAND NAME". I believe it will do fantasticly well with populartiy, and will gain power to minipulate many people to listen to "the band" Thank you for reading this and have a wonderfull band! ~ Delton Abreham McFee, The 3rd ~ | Delton Abreham McFee, The 3rd | ||
