Actually, many band names are based on literary allusions, such as these...
The Doors (quotation from a poem)
New Riders of the Purple Sage (adaptation of an Ernest Hemingway title)
Uriah Heep (a character in a Charles ****ens novel)
Genesis (may be a stretch because Genesis means "beginnings", and Phil Collins may not have been thinking of the first book of the Old Testament)
...just grab your favorite reading material and start there!

actually ive read alot of stuff in the bible (i go to a catholic school , so i know the bible pretty well) and there was alot of hardcore stuff in there, but it was all phrases, all too long to be a name. n plus my way my eng teacher teaches, ive learned to hate reading

how about Sinker.
FYI, Phil collins isn't on the first Genesis album.
If it makes noise hit it!
"Hitler In A Teacup"
"Zombie Logic"
"Militant Infant"
"Birmingham"
i think Shrapnel would be a cool metalcore band name.
How about..."Badder"
cheers

Re: i need help
Find a phrase from a movie, game, book, group you all like and grab a phrase from there. I was on a bowling team one summer (don't laugh) and we were all fans of The Godfather movies so we just sat around and came up with team names from the movies like:
Fredo goes fishing
In bed with a horse head
Sonny's toll booth suprise
something like that could be funny and like an inside joke to those in the know. you know?

Re: i need help
I like your ideas Ernie!
Re: i need help
Not sure who plays drums on it. I'm not a big Genesis fan, but I have the album Tresspass and Peter Gabriel sings on it and there is no Phil Collins. That would indicate that there was another drummer before Phil.

Catcher in the Rye
I love that book. This guy thinks everyone is crazy and it turns out he's the crazy one all along. Or play off the title like Rye Catcher lol I dunno... that's all I got.

Re: i need help
How about taking a cue from The Producers - you could name your band "Springtime for Hitler". I wonder what kind of reaction a band would get if they actually took the stage with that name...?

Re: i need help
I think the best name for a band is FREE BEER!
Seriously though, a name for a Metal band is tricksy..
my vote goes to ROADKILL, MATRIX, DEADSTONE or possibly DARKLIGHT.
Perhaps an anagram of the band members initials??
Good luck on your quest.

Re: i need help
As you can see, there are various sources for coming up with names for your band. One thing to watch out for is Brand Naming. Be careful not to get involved with names or titles that are copyrighted. The band "Chicago" had originally called themselves "Chicago Transit Authority." That didn't go over very well with the city of Chicago and, thus, they were forced to choose another name and simply evolved into CHICAGO. I wrote an article about my best friend and thought that the title would be an interesting name for a band.."Once Had A Bass Drummer." Talk about implications...
Re: i need help
My favorite, the inventor of the Machine Seed Drill in 1701 had a band named after him, Jethro Tull.
btw...Machine Seed Drill would be a great name for a band.
