mudslide73

The Red Admirals - new romantic originals
Rockweiler - cock rock originals
Howling Trouser Magic - Zep plagiarism.
Broken Arrow - indie originals & covers
Silverface - Indie/Rock
The Honeyslides - Female fronted indie
Radiator Joe - Rock Covers
The Verticals - Rock Covers. (still going)
Cardinal Sinners - RnR, Glam, Folk Rock covers.(still going).

First three never played any gigs. Silverface and the Honeyslides were my ideas. I feel I wasted some of the names on the wrong bands.

sPuNK

Brainchild of a schoolfriend. Never actually gigged though, unfortunately. He now writes fairly successful theatre shows, and channels the spirits of Elvis and John Lennon via Sony headphones into his mind!

DulcetJones

Cowboys on Fire - Rock, blues, some original, some country, some experimental jams

Reunion Jack - 60's tribute

Afterglow - Mostly original rock

Poem de Terre - very eclectic, experimental folk/rock

ThePrettyDamned

The super funky dynamite cowboys.

Yeah, we only played a few times. Still, I'd like to reform because it's the best band name. Ever.

Sekond Childhood - All sorts -  and yes, spelt with a K

Urban Commandos - Punk / New Wave - still going in Gateshead I think

Black Flame - Rock (never gigged)

New punk band on the horizon and the name Atticus Finch has been mentioned??!!

Fallen Heaven - Nwobhm
Long haired, Norweigian and wasted - Early thrash inspired with a few L7 and Vaselines covers
Headcleaner - (Everybody had one of our tapes!!) - Genuinely terrible.......there are really no words to describe how awful we were.

he's the lawyer out of To Kill a Mockingbird. There are a couple of other bands named after characters in TKAM aren't there, although I forget which.

For me, nothing too exciting name wise:

Godzilla and the benders

Hollows of Venus

Stonehouse

ZU

From Sabbath to Hell

Sent Her Mental

I think the best band name I ever saw was driving through London and sat in traffic we noticed a pub a board outside a pub that said "Live Music". The next band appearing was called "Bum Gravy". We instantly pissed ourselves laughing

Reverend

Decomposed - heavy slow-to-mid pace death metal
Mourn - doom metal
Carnival of Souls - heavy southern meets Danzig via The Who
Evil Knievel - Stoner meets southern rock with jazz drummer
Blood Island Raiders - mix of classic metal with doom
Crowning Glory - proper metal a la Maiden priest and wasp.
Age of Taurus - Epic doom

Clarky

Aquila [school years.. kinda Thin Lizzy-ish]

the band that followed that had no name <-- kinda sounds like a precursor to being Prince don't it.. that must mean we were years ahead of our time.. this was essentially a follow on from Aquila with a slightly different line-up.. we'd just left school by then too..

Rhapsody - reggae / lovers rock

Fenix - funk rock

Hanging Salad - funk rock [Fenix with a different drummer / keys player]

Civilians - Funk / pop with a rock twist ['91 to '93 and again 2011 until today]

David Cross Band ['93 unit today] - proggy / Crimsony stuff

Syberian - hard rock / metal / a little proggish occasionally .. a pet project of mine since '95.. tried to get this going a few times but I couldn't find the right people to make it work.. I'd actually like to give this one a go again.. just need to find the right people..

 

Karlos

Pete Zanussi & The Appliance Of Funk  (basically a rip off of Parliament but without the costumes and the talent).

Hootsmon

takeagammy......fetish hard rock band

xmrchi

D.I.G.O  which means Does It Go Oink,

Basically the producer had a cookie jar which was in the shape of a pig, and you lifted the head to get a cookie, the first time any of the others in the band went over the first thing we said when we saw the cookie jar was................

freakboy1610
