Come on guys! Help me and a few striving teenagers out!
We have just started a band and are stuck on a name. The only two we have so far are Outlook For Thursday and Sunday's Best. You guys got anything better?
Show your imagination please!

I always thought that either of these two would be good band names
Batteries not included
or
Not to be sold separately.

Like Alternative Punk. Anberlin, Funeral For A Friend, Hawthrone Heights, Fall Out Boy, Coheed And Cambria, Saosin, Mest - Those are a few of our influences.
4 or 5 - Drummer, bassist, 1/2 Guitars, Vocalist.
At the moment we have 1 girl and 3 guys.
Hope that helps:D

Batteries Not Included sounds cool. We are trying to think of random, everyday sayings like that

Err, sort of depends on the type of music you play, cant have a christen country and blues band called "Gunna Hang Ya Mother Bitch" I mean, how would they introduce you to a room full of nuns?
Or, in a packed dark stadium full of moshing teens a booming voice comes over the PA with "And now its the FLUFFY BUNNY HUGGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
See, it just dosn’t work.

Good idea to go for a "common saying" or something in common usage. No copyrioght issues and heaps of free advertising everytime someone see/reads the phrase in question.
Something easy to say, short and punchy
The only one coming to mind at the mo is "Maiden China"
I like the Batteries not Included

Your first album could be called "Testicles (tes-ti-kleez), the god of rash covered scrotums".

Oh man, I swear that's still my favourite thread ever.
If anyone wants a good example of "classic KB" check out White Trash's thread (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=7834) on his Violators...
As for a "punk" band name, try

Upon further consideration, I have realised that you have given him rather Death Metal band names. Seeing as he is interested in "music" of the "cookie cutter" variety. Although claiming to be "alternative", I hardly believe this, as Fall Out Boy and such are often (sadly) played on TV programs like Select.
Each to their own. But I'm always right.

Well I wrote a few lyrics last night and created the guitar track for one of them. Here they are...
Disposable Units
Those who commit the crimes
Don't they hear the screams?
Won't they hear the screams?
Can't they hear the screams?
For if they did...
Surely, they'd stop...
Surely, they'd stop
Those who inflict pain
Don't they hear the screams?
Won't they hear the screams?
Can't they hear the screams?
For if they did...
Surely, they'd think...
Surely, they'd think
Those who do the deed
Don't they hear the screams?
Won't they hear the screams?
Can't they hear the screams?
For if they did...
Surely, they'd live...
Surely, they'd live
Eternity
Wandering in darkness grope
Finding not a glimpse of hope
My fingers touch to find my way
Each foot fall, my heart betrays
The fear which drives me through the day
The fear which drives me through the day!
Suddenly the ground is lost
Flailing arms as body's tossed
Splashing down in a crimson pool
The warm embrace is much too cruel
I curse this lowly, wretched fool
I curse this lowly, wretched fool!
Floundering in this self made hell
Warmth increasing as I dwell
Within the confines I create
Screaming as myself berate
Giving in to this, my fate
Giving in to this...my fate!
Necrophilia
Last time she touched me
I set a course for L.A.
Midnight flight!
Now she tried to tell me
That she comes from the grave
Such a sight!
Stay away
Your hands are cold
Frigid lips
Evil soul
Yeah
She's a deceiver
Disbeliever
Inconceiver
Necrophilia
Black candles burning
On her altar of ice
She's no fight!
Heavy metal maiden
On her way through
The night air!
Get away
Your hands are cold
Cadaver eyes
Wicked soul
Yeah
No
Stay away
Your hands are cold
Frigid lips
Evil soul
Yeah
She's a deceiver
Disbeliever
Inconceiver
Necrophilia
One In The Same
Hands around an innocents throat and
No different than hands around a lovers body
An entangeled lapping of a serpintine tounge
Feeling as it tastes
Is like that of a lovers flower kiss
That licks and feels what pleasure it brings
Blood pouring down from a wounded souls heart
Is like that of the tears cried from a broken hearts agony
Plunging sword, to an enemys gut, twisted and goudging
Same as harsh words spoken from a lovers mouth
To make a mortal wound
Fear of death, immanant and pending
Is the terrified eyes of a love
Waiting for the death
Blow to her love, from it
Is like that of a lovers flower kiss
That licks and feels what pleasure it brings
Blood pouring down from a wounded souls heart
Is like that of the tears cried from a broken hearts agony
