Vote for the BEST BAND NAME Here! - GoFuckYourself.com

badmunchkin · 01-21-2005, 11:15 AM

So let's wrap this up:

Vote for the best band name in the poll.

Style of Music:
Thinking man's rock in the vein of Pink Floyd, TOOL, VAST, APC, Tori Amos, NIN, Jeff Buckley, U2, MUSE, etc.

I have included 4 of our original entries

and 16 GFY suggestions!

So statistically there's a much better chance for a GFY suggestion to win.

If one of our band-names wins this poll, no one gets shit

If a GFY suggestion wins, I'll paypal the winner $50

I'll leave this poll open for 48 hours - Rock the Vote

I don't know - I like it for, like, a tech-based company - but don't know if it works for a band name...

jt420 · 01-21-2005, 12:45 PM

they all sound kind of cheesy but i like Inert Flux the most

mindoza · 01-21-2005, 12:46 PM

I orginally voted for Grimstone, but now I think that is to fatal.

My new choice is Screams of Silence

sickkittens · 01-21-2005, 12:48 PM

I'm not really that crazy over any of them.

this is probably too much to ask but try to vote on the name matching the style of music not just on the name. That's why I posted the music style at the top. We are NOT metal. Screams of Silence is cool but is very much a name for a metal band.

Grimstone just doesn't do it for me... Sounds like a jewel instead of a band name.

Terminal Crush - sounds like a purely techno internet band.

Unconscious Thought - sounds too Emo'ish to me.

Emotical is the clear winner! (BTW: my suggestion holds more weight than most other people!

I've played guitar and bass for 8+ years - and drums for 4. Been in numerous bands. I'm also naturally creative as I am a designer!)

Trust me, emotical kicks ass

I do like that name, but my opinion doesn't matter for the winner of this contest - it's all up to the poll, man

Like screams of silence and unconscious thought don't do anything for me but if they win the poll, then it's all good

What we choose in the end is a different story. If we use Emotical, we'll be in touch

tokyuhands · 01-22-2005, 12:08 PM

i think you should
call yourselves
patpong.

or lalibela.

or

ham ham heartbreak.

that would be the
best ever.

Hmmm, they were both at the forefront of creating "alternative" music, both are melodic rock bands, both are popular rock bands from outside the US. I didn't compare them either - I said our style blends elements of both bands.
They're not THAT different, it's not like I compared U2 with like Slayer or Barbara Streisand.

pxxx · 01-22-2005, 12:54 PM

I don't even know who most of those bands are.

Fatalspeed · 01-22-2005, 12:59 PM

Emotical sounds good

Furious_Male · 01-22-2005, 01:53 PM

Digital Edge sounds cool.

Patpong gets my vote!

Soi Cowboy would be a good runner up.

this is to vote for a name for my new original band, so you shouldn't know any of the band names in the poll - none of them exist as band names yet! Just vote for the best-sounding name for an alternative melodic rock group

cool1 · 01-23-2005, 01:29 AM

"Beyond The Edge" has a nice ring to it

One hour left on this contest, right now Terminal Crush is in the lead with 5 votes, Grimstone & Emotical are tied at 4. Vote for your fave, now or never...

uno · 01-23-2005, 10:28 AM

Not in the list, but my friend and I always wanted to name a band Veronica's Bloody Scrubs. There's a story behind it, but i think the name is cool even without explanation.
