I need a band name

Not sure if this is the right place to post this.

I'm trying to come up for a name for my metal project (i.e. the name that I put out covers/original material on), but have failed so far.

The music is going to be relatively progressive, with Devy influences.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance :wink:

Sorry man, there are so many bands around these days that all the good names are taken :P

I think the problem with asking musicians for band names is that the good ones they come up with they'll always want to keep for themselves. :lol:

Don't listen to Biert, though! ;) You just have to think, well, unusually. Or jam two random words together like I did: Swimfail :P

T-Rex is awfully close to T.Rex (Get It On, 20th Century Boy), but still, that's quite a list! :)

Hahaha no problem. That's the result of months of undecision, boredom, and i guess what you could call creativity? In the end we settled with something more original. Our band name is Secret Weapon, and we aren't changing it just because we don't want any more stress. hahah
