Just because I've heard some really good ones recently.

Could you really turn down records by:

And None Of Them Knew They Were Robots
Biblical Proof of UFOs
Buggersod
Men of Porn
The Obvious Hooks
The Tight Bros From Way Back
Explosions in the Sky

wembley can change in 28 days

Those are all pretty solid. Something tells me I wouldn't be wanting to name a band these days. For instance, some smaller names playing in the TO scene this week:

Pickle Juice
Faceless Forces of Bigness
The Make 'em Ups
Pork Belly Futures
Mind of a Squid
Superbeing 77
Perth County Conspiracy (Does Not Exist!)
Jerkbank
I am Robot and Proud
The Vermicious Knid
Heillig Manoeuvre

recent misspelling of a footballer's name, as spotted in the guardian editor this weekend: patriot fellatio. if that isn't a damned good band name, i don't know what is.

01:16 / 23.04.02

I really want to start a band called the Fancy Boys.

Margin Walker

04:23 / 23.04.02

Would it be a Rich Kids cover band?

The Natural Way

08:34 / 23.04.02

Though I suspect - as a pedantic Runce should - that it's the 'Heimlich Manoeuvre'.

managed to stumble on a band called the 'new faggot cunts'.

just thought you should know.

01:08 / 30.04.02

... let me guess, they're a generic 70's rock/garage punk, with a big breasted girl posing on motorcycle on their record cover. am i close?

Jack Fear

Not hardly. Apparently it's an Angela Messina project.

I say that as if it means something. Upon reflection, I find it means norhing whatever—the name "Angela Messina" sounded familiar for some reason, but I must have been thinking of someone else.

It's just one of those names, though.

For the curious or the masochistic, New Faggot Cunts MP3s are available at this garish, eye-hurting mess of a website.

this week's best band name - Minus The Bear.

Several possible interpretations, all of them funny.

Saveloy

12:27 / 30.04.02

The title of last night's episode of Captain Scarlet: "Renegade Rocket". Pub punk band?

pointless and uncalled for

12:44 / 30.04.02

Not quite a band but DJ Rebel Bass is a favourite new one for me.

Just because I was reading these threads, I thought I'd link this one to the other one.

And mention that a friend of mine has a side project called "Publicity Cunt" which is the best use of "cunt" in a band name I know of. They do bad covers of classic punk songs, and the shtick is that the drummer never stops playing.

04:17 / 27.06.04

I've actually started the Fancy Boys since I posted on this thread way back then.
