Rock band name suggestions.
Well, like the title says...i'd like some suggestions to a band name for my rock band that i'm in. I play guitar and sing, there is
another guitarist, a bass player and a drummer.
We're really struggling for a good, suitable rock band name.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Our kind of music is like that of "feeder".
Cheers.

Thanks for the reply. LOL! There's some good ideas and some bad ones...i mean where did "hairy white boys" come from? 
It's funny because we were thinking of something with the word "slick" in it. That's quite good...maybe we could mix some of the words,
like SlickSonar or SlickTripper or Slick Razor?
Narcosiz is good as well, i think Narcostic sounds better though, for some strange reason.
Please keep posting if anyone has any more suggestions.
Cheers.

I almost got a band to take up the name "artificial lard" Thats what I call the Flora type spreads or fake butters.
How about sugadaddy?
Dough, still doesn't beat Hairy White Boys.

I had this problem with the band that I was in.....
Sooo many arguments about what the band should have been called,
We started with "Bovine drapes"... but realised that it wasn't a commercial name... then it progressed to ;
"MAN HOOF"... and then briefy moved to "Killa Chinchilla"
...then our musical differences conflicted (ie we couldn't play in tune with each other) and we ended up fighting!
oh well.... 
I'm thinking of starting a new band and calling it;
"Return of the killa bikini vampire girls"... auditions start next week..

Hairy White Boys is the best because its the most talked about. Its instantly rememberable. Also if you are serious about the band
then you need to make sure the name is not used.

Hairy White Boys is good, but how about "Chopper"?
btw - I've heard that Raleigh plan to start selling them again, but without the ball crusher gear change!

I quite like chopper....and i think the word artificial could go well with something.
I just can't see why hairy white boys is the most popular, what are you guys on?
I hate to say it but wouldn't it seem a little racist if we performed in front of another colour apart from white, and them say; "so
whats your band called?" we would reply; "the hairy white boys"....would that be wrong?
Thanks for the replies...any more suggestions would be appreciated, keep the posts rolling.

Well it's not racist because it's not denouncing any minority. Also you don't have to be hairy either though you could wear chest wigs
on stage that would be amusing. Oh go on - I want to see the photos lol.

Your right bananaman, it's not rascist, but below here's a photot of my band in chest wigs.......NOT! I doubt if i'll be in a hurry to
do that, if at all. 
Ok, where do you get these names from? Just your brain picking random words and putting them together? Sometimes it works but when you
use words like "mincebeef" thats just weird!
LOL!
Seriously though, does anyone have any good band names, i'll rephrase that, i mean sensible band names....hey bananaman do you reckon
you could make some up out of that crazy mind of yours.
Cheers, keep posting.

Thank you all for your suggestions, obviously i can't be bothered to reply to every single reply.
That generator thing is pretty good...and stupid! LOL! It keeps repeating the words candle, hamster, bag, wall and woman. 
My band might include the word "Metaphyzical".
But we need some more suggestions, preferably not from the generator (unless its good).
We'd like a serious band name though, not something silly like "Four Feisty Mothers" !
Cheers.
