Research into Similar Products: Band Names
The great bands always have completely random names, like The Beatles and The Jam. Many britpop bands also use names that are completely off the hook, but have a meaning behind it, as the Stone Roses where called The Stone Roses because of the huge contrast between the words Stone and Roses. I may do something similar with the name of my band. The name of my actual band in which I am the bassist for is Static Irony, which is a completely random name. I could possibly use this name. Bands like Sleeper and Oasis just have one word as their band name, which is effective as it is easy to remember. I feel like I could call the band absolutely anything, just looking around I could call it 'Window Sill' or 'Printer' or 'Felt Tip'. The variety of choice is extreme, as when on the front of an album cover or magazine, a band can be called just about anything. I like the idea of having an oxymoron as the name of my band, and I could use a Shakespeare oxymoron, such as 'Loving Hate' or 'Cold Fire'. Thanks Shakespeare.
