The Best Band Names of 2013 (Very NSFW in Places)
If you’ve ever been in a band, you’ll know that that coming up with a name is sheer torture.
The right name sums up your band’s sound and attitude and image. Everyone in the group has to agree on it. It has to be original; the last thing you want is to be sued by a band who already has dibs on that name. The Internet domain/Facebook name/Twitter handle etc. has to be available. It has to attract attention. And it must lend itself to good graphic design.
With all that in mind, I direct you to the AV Club’s Year in Band Names. Here are some highlights–and keep in mind that these are all real bands.
