Pretty much what the title says. I'm in a metal band with our main influences from metallica, slipknot, avenged sevenfold and lamb of god. Currently, our songs vary between sounding like thrash to melodic-death metal. Lots of fast, heavy riffing or slower chugging. Solos are all shredded/tapped. Vocals are a mix of clean singing, growled, shouted and screamed.
We only formed recently and have a few songs written and a couple of covers nailed as well, including a metalled up version of muse's hysteria. Everything has been going well and we're thinking of beginning to play some live shows soon. However, we still lack a name! It fell to me as our main songwriter to come up with a name but unfortunately, since my dad suggested 'Raymondo Klegg and his Amazing Whistling Ferrets' my brain just pops that up whenever I search for new ideas.
So, because I'm too lazy to do it myself; I'll ask if any of you at the escapist can think of a band name that would look suitable alongside the likes of Metallica and Lamb of God in the headlining spot of a metal festival- or just on the sign outside a club or bar. Suggestions for turning such a name into a brutal logo, or a mascot to rival eddie, would also be extremely welcome!
EDIT: So far, Legion, Nuclear Sunset, Vice Grip, Hell Exibit and Teddy Bear Autopsy are taking the top spots. The last one is less serious than I would've normally gone for but hell, we can change it later.
Shrapnel was also mentioned, which I like the sound of...
