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.

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.

Probably too much like Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.  Although that is a good one.

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.

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, Zweibrüucken and Rheinland-Pfalz.

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