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.

Vinegar Eruption Perverts | Remember at every lame elementary or mid-school science science fair somebody made a garish neon green paper mache' vocano with baking soda in the "crater", then added vinegar and it spewed all over the place. Then ten years later you read in the newspaper that the "volcano geek" was arrested for some kind of perversion. The way it spewed always reminded me of something else, but I kept it to myself because it wasn't easy being a 19 year old 7th grader. | Badboybear | ||
