Name for a alternative rock band?

[theshadowoverinnsmouth]

Fellow Escapists!
I have been in a alternative rock band which is what I would describe a cross between Radiohead and Bloc party (but nowhere near as good as either)and we are having a hard time coming up with a name for our band.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?
Please only give names that you wouldn't mind us using.
Cheers Guys,
FordyDudeGuy

Radioparty or Blochead. I'm so original!

I'd try to help you but I'm in the same boat as you friend.

Better than some of the c**p that we've come up with so far.
The thing is it would be so much easier if we were a geek rock band. I've had tons of names like that. But that isn't the kind of music we play.
Thanks anyway

I've always heard the best way to come up with a name for a band/album is just to go to wikipedia and hit random article.

looks like your band shall be called: Quadragnostus

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadragnostus

doesn't seem like it'll be easy for your fans to talk about you but what a name!

 

[unicron44]

The Pharm Animals.

 

[Icaruss]

The Sheep
The Strays
The Esteemsters
The Filthly Bastards
The Raving Fanboys

Unfortunatley I'm not the only member of the band so I can't just decide on the name this instant but I will suggest all these names to them next time we meet. Thank you.
P.s Quadragnostus. Hmmm interesting I got Nassula.

Scrooge McFuckduck and the Goddamn Batmans. I know if I had a band, I'd call it that. Then again, I have a weird sense of humor.

 

[Radeonx]

Ninjas with Strawberries.

A fellow band member suggested 'All Hands On Dick' Apparentely he has that sense of humore too.

 

[HyperDalek]

Vector Nullspace and the Determinants.

How about *drumroll* The Iron Giants

edit: here are some more I came up with

The Bedbugs

The Glitches

Bon Lemon (rhymes with....)

Struck by Lightning

and, for a joke, The Receiving Tree

2nd edit: and, on a vaguely topical note, House of Wine

[Dominoblox]

Zombie Bank, Protoflight, Firstborn firstdead, Steam Arc?
We recently did the same for my band, so I have a ton of them.

Gentlemen, we have a winner. Three brilliant things, one great band name.
I don't think the others will go for that somehow.

 

[Andy Shandy]

I always liked the Scrubs one, 7 Car Pile Up, although that's probably taken by now.

 

[MindBullets]

"The Craters", or possibly "Smouldering Crater"

w00t I was just thinking what if Tom Selleck was a Ninja!

I used to be in a band. We wanted an oxymoron for a name so we decided between Jumbo Shrimp and Passive/Aggressive. We chose the latter. I wanted to change it to Friendly Fire but there's already a band with that name.

I suggest going through the lyrics of songs you like. You can even nick the names of songs too if you find a decent one that would work.

"A alternative rock band"
Alternatively:
"Grammar sucks!"
The exclamation mark in the second suggestion is non-negotiable.
