The Band Name Game!

The self-proclaimed inventors of screaming emo orchestra...well, actually, they favored glam rock, hence the spandex. They wore the ugliest costumes you can imagine, and their hair was taller than their bodies.

A Death Metal band with three drummers who have two quadruple base pedals each. They live in Scandanavia and their lead singer(who has corn flakes currently glued onto his face) is a geographist.

Although the name brings to mind some baking show, it's actually just Senor Cardgage seeing about grumblecakes and other fine foodstuffs. Some fat guys play instruments, Cardgage has all the vocals. Their number one fan is Strong Bad, not surprisingly.

One o' those hard cello-rock bands. Pretty freakin' sweet.

Alto

Darth Katana X · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 7:09 am

They call themselves "good vibes," but it's more like "boring vibes." Jazz, motown R&B, reggae, soul, funk, gospel, blues, soft post rock, adult contemporary and some (ridiculously slow) rapping in one easy-to-carry package. Their songs seem to be about romance, but they're so cryptic that nobody's figured it out. All the members dress like Uncle Sam in pictures. Not too interesting, but their songs are great to bore babies to sleep with if you don't like singing lullabies (who does?).

Eek-a-Blouse

Darth Katana X · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 9:02 pm

A high-voiced reggae singer. He got his name from a horse that always lost because its stupid owner put it in a blouse, and it didn't like it, so the horse's name ended up being called "Eek-a-Blouse." He kept betting on that horse and losing, so he named himself after it. Freak.

Homestar cuts a solo album! His songs aren't really all that great, since he writes them all himself with a little help from Homsar (ooh, dear), but he's riduculously popular anyway because people think his lisp is novel. His biggest hit is a cover of Tripleside's "Legitimate Business." Which is in itself a cover of everything Homsar has ever said, sorta.

A goth opera band that is working on the music for the theatrical release World of Warcraft: Teh Movie. A big choir that sings stuff like "u 4r3 t3h pwnz0rz!!!!!!1"

John the Mayer

IantheGecko · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 10:31 pm

John the Mayer is a 6-man Casio pop band from Minneapolis. But now they're down to 4 guys.

Rubber Band

Darth Katana X · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 11:53 pm

The pioneers of hard pop, Rubber Band is somewhere between Bowling for Soup and Rage Against the Machine on the food chain. They make really, really offensive political statements all the time, and their novelty Green Day meets N*Sync meets Underoath style gives them plenty of cult appeal. They also did an adult contemporary disc when they were very young, and then baffled the fan base they had at the time with bombastic, testosterone-driven scream fests.

Some highschool two peoples sci-fi band. One wears a bucket, the other wears cartoon character masks. The former guy lashes out with an 'letric guitar. They are possibly the next Bill and Ted or Wayne's World or something like that.

Barrel Roll

Cybernetic Teenybopper · **Posted:** Wed May 31, 2006 11:12 pm

You know how most rock bands are allowed one or two power ballads? This band sings nothing BUT power ballads. And, oddly enough, writes the occasional novelty song. But you'll only find those on their CD's. All the songs that get played on the radio are their big, emotional songs about life, love, death, birth, and, if you'll believe it, the forest and all the cuddly creatures therein.

Drive-By W00ting

A gangsta hip-hop group inspired by Weird Al's "All About The Pentiums", all of their songs are about computers, internets, and other techno-leet stuff.

The Splanckthors!

Blue · **Posted:** Thu Jun 01, 2006 12:20 am

THis alternative band was started by Rivers Cuomo in 1992.

PurpleKoopa · **Posted:** Thu Jun 01, 2006 2:40 am

The nameless band existed for two weeks. Then they went out of buiness, because they couldn't sell any CDs, coffee mugs, or T-Shirts with their band name on them. Either that or Blue forgot to name a new band name.

Creamed Cabbage

Creamed Cabbage was one of those joke-punk bands. They were just out to make people laugh.

Cybernetic Teenybopper · **Posted:** Thu Jun 01, 2006 10:34 pm

One of those punk, alt bands. They're not really about raging against the machine, their sound is just very off-the-beaten-path and peculiar. Oh, and their CD cover is red with a black sillohet (sp?) on it. Their songs are musically pretty good, but lyrically unremarkable. Biggest hit: "Make Me Cry."

A Note:

DarkSideOfTheSchwartz · **Posted:** Thu Jun 01, 2006 11:00 pm

Note was formed in 1990 in texas they consist of a harmonica player, a bagpipe player, a flute player, and a drumer, but are somehow considered rock. All of their songs are tributes to other bands. Thir first (and only) album released was titled I not crazy I'm just... no wait I am crazy. It had moderate sucess, and their next album is sceaduled to be released later this year

Running into walls

PurpleKoopa · **Posted:** Thu Jun 01, 2006 11:05 pm

Some pop ballad musician with too much time on his hands. He does vocals, lyrics, and music! How's he a band? He tries convincing people that the computer he made all the music on is part of the band. Hit song is "I Feel Like I'm Running (Into Walls)", which is also their opening number.

We Love Poodles

IantheGecko · **Posted:** Fri Jun 02, 2006 2:01 am

We Love Poodles was an all-girl jazz band from Seattle.

Super Ball

PurpleKoopa · **Posted:** Fri Jun 02, 2006 3:11 am

A band that likes Homsar because he won the power ball, but they call themselves Super Ball. They're a group of five guys who write whatever is fun, random, and much like Homsar himself. Their first performance was a bad one, they were booed off by angry fans who threw super balls at them (those little bouncy balls that bounce crazy high). They have since improved, but their drummer, Keith, is traumatized by the incident.

Disloyalist Party

Cybernetic Teenybopper · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 10:21 pm

A completely nondescript recent outta-knowhere indie rock band. They're pretty good, in a really generic kinda way. Their music is enjoyable, but you have heard all of it before. Nevertheless, their fanbase is immense.

Flip Phone Tripod

Lunar Jesty · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 10:34 pm

A college rock band that played a few gigs near Brown. However, their lead singer was murdered when he refused to play "Freebird" and instead played their hit, "That's What It Feels Like (To Have A Friend Who Steals Your Manga And Doesn't Return It)."

The All-Singles

IantheGecko · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 11:26 pm

The All-Singles were a trio of performers who turned 1-dollar bills (aka "singles") and turned them into kazoos. They didn't do very well.

Flight at Night

Darth Katana X · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 11:53 pm

Flight at Night is a cross between indie and "vocoder groove pop" as they call it. Basically a run-of-the-mill Amy Ranger rip-off with some disco thrown in for bad measure.

Hearts That Hate

Einoo T. Spork · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 11:54 pm

Flight At Night is a fantasy-rock band that would be rather generic if it weren't for the fact that not only does the lead singer sound like she's completely hammered and has a potato stuck in her mouth, but that the band consists of nothing but four different kinds of drums plus one electric guitar only. Everyone has their own opinion about them, but none of them are forum-friendly.

The Band of People Who Sometimes Do Stuff and Maybe Write and Sing Songs Too

SIMULPOSTED! Next person has to do both of our bands.

IantheGecko · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2006 11:58 pm

The Band of People Who Sometimes Do Stuff and Maybe Write and Sing Songs Too, and Hearts That Hate, are both pretty much the same band. Only their lead singer is different. Oh, and Hearts that Hate wear jeans.
