Band names?

[interceptorMR2]

Hey there, so my friends and I are starting up a band, but we're having trouble deciding on a name, like most bands do. We have a few names, so I'm just going to nail them down to what I feel are the best ones we came up with, but which one do you guys like the most? We will be playing hard rock up to metal type stuff (no screaming, screaming sucks IMO). My biggest influences are Avenged Sevenfold and Atreyu if that helps, but we also plan on playing similar stuff to what Papa Roach plays. If anyone has any good suggestions that fit with the genre and, of course, are appropriate, feel free to post your idea, just as long as you know its not taken

Oh and um.... real bands names please, no jokes

EDIT: Avenged Sevenfold and Atreyu are my major influences strictly for GUITAR. I can live with the screaming because the guitar is good.

keep trying, most of these are MEH. I'll give you suggestions ifI think of anything.

[interceptorMR2]

yeah I was a little disappointed too, that's why I threw in the suggestion thingy

trust me, we had some really crappy ones... I hate when people come up with names that are really similar to other bands.

Screaming sucks? But a7x and atreyu are influences?

beat me to it.

i find it funny that Funeral for a Friend is screamo but has less screaming and more actual singing than those bands put together.


im not good with names, but if i come up with any, ill let you know.

hahaha, yeah I know I know, I'm weird that way. I like the newer stuff from both bands, but actually I love the guitar in both bands, particularly a7x. I can live with screaming, cause synyster gates is amazing.

I'm lead guitarist, so syn is pretty important if you ask me.

I had to go with Hollow Conscience... To be honest, I wasn't really fond of any of them... But good luck with that band!

Always wanted to start a band called Everyone Loves

This would be great album art too..



Had to go with Name on a Bullet though..

[interceptorMR2]

I came up with The Name on the Bullet mostly cause I'm really into WWII and a veteran was telling our class this past year something like "You know there's a bullet somewhere out there with your name on it" so I just kinda took it from that. I like the Pi thing though thats grade A stuff

Lol, I was just going to say that. Atreyu is terrible live and do almost nothign but scream, especially in most of their older stuff. Avenged Sevenfolds older stuff is all heavy metal screaming too.

I'd take more influence form Three Days Grace or bands like that if you want a "heavier" non scream effect. Slipknot/Sevendust is a decent influence. They don't scream a whole lot.

Bullet With A Name On It is a song I believe.
"I've got a bullet with a name on it, bullet with a name."
