I'm trying to find a name for my solo music project.
In terms of sound it's a bit like The Microphones / Bob Dylan / Neutral Milk Hotel / Daniel Johnston
Which is the best name?
High and Dry
Plastic Bed
Carnival Kids
Adam's Right Rib
Flowers of Asphalt
The Hermaphrodites
The Man Without Qualities
Mount Analogue
Mr. Noon
The Original Laura Club
Sleeping Venus
The Dreamers
The Asphalt Foundation
Bump
I'm sorry if this isn't the answer you're looking for, but if this is solo then use your own fucking name. Stop trying to separate yourself and your aesthetic from the sensibilities of pop stardom, it looks tryhard and uninspired as fuck
But my last name is "Weinberg".
If anything I'd change my last name to something that flows of the tounge easier. Maybe "Hughes" or "Sheer" or "Jones"
Not really a fan of any of these desu
High and Dry. Others a bit too cliche for me.
>Plastic Bed
>Adam's Right Rib
>The Hermaphrodites
>The Original Laura Club
le quirky random nonsensical names xD
Radiohead.
Changing your name or adopting a stage name, imo, is far superior to ANOTHER bedroom project with a non-sequetor band style name.
Maybe I'm on the wrong side of things here, but I'm tired as fuck of reading about new music in blogs and seeing 'Donkey Rails Girl, the alias of lo-fi psych-pop producer Bertie Funkelstein' or 'Muhammad Trevor-Noah, aka THETOUCHOFUNCLEBEN, started recording sparse, ambient soundscapes out of his London flat in 2016.'
I agree with that sentiment 100%, but Adam's Right Rib doesn't really qualify
Well put
The fuck. So is mine. Who the fuck are you, cousin?
And when I release solo work I'm gonna use my last name, pony up mother fucker.
>not using the name Weinberg in an industry run by Jews
Are you an idiot?
Bob Dylan did it so I feel like I wanna follow in his footsteps. I could own up to it tho
Answer me, cousin.
Oh yo im from a suburb 30 mins outside of Boston if you live near there or have family there
W E S T O N

N
I don't know if I've got family in Boston. Do you know if you've got any in California?
Ah, the "I can't sing but pretend that's part of the appeal" aesthetic.
What's your first name or a first name that means something to you? You could call it (name)'s dreamer or something like that idk.
...
sup bro nice to see ya again papa bless
Nah
Nice bruh you ever go out to the boulder brook reservation great place
ps: don't name it "momentary lapse of..."
Why not? I kinda like "A Momentary Lapse of Love"
The Man Without Qualities.
sets a low bar for expectations
Mr. Noon sounds good.
I got the perfect name for you
>quirky and pretentious
Not really, it's a pinnacle of literature
>Mr. Noon
Cumguzzler.
Turn your name into an anagram and use that.
Post your music, onee-chan
>High and Dry
>naming yourself after some other bands's song, especially one that named themselves after some other band's song
>le quirky random nonsensical names xD
oh fuck you i think it's time those make a comeback
the last one sounds like there's an interesting personal story behind it
the first one's good because it works metaphorically, ykno comfort in consumerism, but that's almost a vaporwave cliche
>Mr. Noon
-Implies that it's a solo project
-Gives off folk vibes
-It's a literary reference so everyone knows you're pretentious
This is the best choice by far
If you pick Mr. Noon, OP, I'll be Mr. Midnight and we'll race across Massachusetts to meet in the middle.
I'm in Worcester bb. Come fite me.
>having a bandname
THE DAYMAN FIGHTS THE NIGHTMAN
What if your full name is generic and often used?
YOURE A MASTER OF KARATE
I'm currently in Boston, Weinberganon. The way you describe your music sounds pretty cool. Make sure to post a link here if you ever release anything.
Im very in-tune with naming. ive made lots of good names. I will rate your names
>I would listen to:
The Original Laura Club
The Hermaphrodites
Sleeping Venus
>I might listen to:
The Dreamers
Mount Analogue (but sounds like Mount Eerie)
>I would not listen to:
High and Dry
Carnival Kids
Adam's Right Rib
Plastic Bed
Flowers of Asphalt
The Man Without Qualities
The Asphalt Foundation
Mr. Noon
If you're gonna make your stage name a musical reference try and be more sublt fuckwit.
Is the proper way to do it. Only adopt a name like those for a group, solo projects should just be a stage name or a real name.
bob dylan 2
user make me a band naaaaame
I'm a one man fag with a synth a bass and a looper and my last name is shit I need a naaaaame
Wow I can't believe this thread is still kickin
I'm the name rater
Provide some names and I can rate them
If you're trying for a random one I'd go for The High and Dry Plastic Carnival
The dreamers is already taken
not bad if it was a one-off self titled, or just an album title
but a band cant survive with that name
better as an album like beirut's The Flying Club Cup
the giant faggot and his one man band of homosexuals
Can you change the name of my beedrill
I named it PENIS when it was a metapod but now its not funny anymore
Hmmm. PENIS, is it? That sounds good. It seems very like you. But if you'd like to change it, I can help you do that, too. How about it?
