Free Band Names!

Every 7 seconds a new band is created. [citation needed]

Aside from learning your instruments, writing songs, finding regular gigs and deciding what supermodel you're going to domestically abuse, the toughest part about starting a band is choosing a name.

And because your BFFs at the DoF know thinking can be hard, we've compiled a totally complimentary cock-rockin' list of band names along with the type of music best-suited for that suggested band name.

Band Name/Best suited for:
EarPunchClimax/Finnish Speed Metal
Suffocated by Cool/UB40 cover band
The Didgeri-don'ts/Australian Lesbian Rock* 
Post-Coital Tears/A tribute to Morrissey
Bag of Crushed Child/Black Metal
Tumor Circus/Christian Pop
The Great Muppet Raper/Acoustic Folk Duo
Territorial Tennis Partner/Ska fusion
I Like Gravy/Songs inspired by and about gravy
Voluptuous Toddler/String Quartet
Absconded Erections/Playing the best of Phil Collins
They Stole Jazz/Black Bluegrass String Band
Manatee's Closet/Plus-sized fashion pop

Post-emo Colonial Marching Bands: So hot right now.

*The Didgeri-don'ts name comes free with the Barry Metropolis-penned, soon-to-be-smash-hit, "Get That Thing Away From My Mouth"

hilarious! i can't count the number of times i've failed to perform solely based on the sound of "invisible touch" hitting my ears.

If you've never heard the psychobilly collection called Wavy Gravy, get it NOW!
The best song on the album is by Moses Longpiece, and is called 'I'm takin' a shower now, just slide her under the door'.Magic.
Those band names look suspiciously like what you get when you translate stuff using babelfish.

Blaine is a bit touchy, but it pays off with some killer cuddling skillzzz.

Blaine is absolutely a bit touchy. The past two nights in a row he's gotten into bed while a little intoxicated and began to rub my butt while telling me...well you know. Which is exactly what all the ladies want...

I still like Angry Afterbirth. That will be my band name in RockBand someday.

Now if only I could afford RockBand.
