but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

don't really know yet. we're mostly doing covers so far.
the guitar player and i have written a few things.
influenced by classics like the beatles, pink floyd, led zep, and some more modern stuff like king muskafa, no doubt, iron & wine, deerhoof, the pretenders, stars, pinback, etc.

Name yourself "If You're an Individual Clap Your Hands". I personally really like that one.

Cuba Plan B, Infant Abattoir, Man and the Mannets and Ham Cheese Tomato,  Fuck Lettuce.

I alwayse envisaged Infant Abattoir ironicaly playing songs about puppies and sunshine so if your going to make it deathg metal don't use that one.

If you're a British band, call yourself Bollockaust.

I think Open to Criticism would be good for an Indie band, but usually a band name should come from experience or an event that gave you an idea for that name.

Well, that's my advice atleast.

Blue 11.

It's a name I came up with and liked, but I don't think I'm gonna use it for my band.

you should try some of the names mentiond in part 3 of "illuminatus!" by robert shea. they're fictional and there's quite a big chance no one else uses them. plus some of them are really cool. i got the name for my band (orange moose) from that book.

Awesome, there's a good 2 band names right there, Zweibr&uuml;ucken and Rheinland-Pfalz.

But I've just taken Rheinland-Pfalz as the name of my one-man cover band so HA. :B
