Let's Talk About Ceps
I don't know about you, but I think an important thing for a band is to have a good name. For example, I think a lot of industrial/EBM bands have great names - Throbbing Gristle, Tackhead, Nitzer Ebb (maybe not Velvet Acid Christ!). Anyway, here are some bands that don't exist, but should, and what they might sound like:
The Sludge - psychobilly/Misfits-y horror-punk
Life Without Light - slightly gothy, slightly pretentious art-rock
Daddy's Little Princess - shouty, bratty, girly punk
Cold Dark Matter - slick, nasty, heavy industrial/electronica - think recent Front 242 without the vocals crossed with Autechre at their most 'splattery'
Peter And The Parasites - punk/new wave wearing its '50s rock-n-roll influences on its sleeve
Oh, and Sonic Energy Authority - this one's from a book by Robert Rankin but I've always thought it was a great name. To me they're sort of dance-rock, perhaps a bit 'baggy' but more hardcore: think Pop Will Eat Itself with shades of 'Breathe'-era Prodigy.
Anyone be arsed to think of any more? And if you're in/have been in a band, what are/were you called?
Edit: I FORGOT MY FAVOURITE ONE! Anucide - a comically (but unironically) shit death metal/grindcore band.
