>>65413475

If you listen to them, it's like they literally insert an exclamation mark in the middle of every other sentence.
>>65414042
This makes me feel slightly ill.
>>65413475
>Robbie Basho
I've never figured out how his name is supposed to be pronounced. Same with Fennesz.
King Gizzard and the Liza- actually fuck you, I refuse to seriously type those words in that order.
Your album ain't bad but you're a bunch of cunts.
>>65413522
What's your favorite "real folk", then, since you're such an expert on it ?
>>65414149
Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz
none of these mentioned sound bad to me and nothing comes to mind
Klaxons
i think Neutral Milk Hotel is a horrible name but it probably doesn't help that i associate it with NMH fans
>>65414781
It is a horrible name.
Also, Butthole Surfers and Sigur Ros
>>65414851
Butthole Surfers is a great band name. You're just a lil bitch.
>>65413475
Popol Vuh is cool as hell though if you think about the mythology behind it
>>65414890
No, it just sounds stupid and makes no sense.
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.
They're legitimately a great band though, so I forgive them.
Diarrhea Planet
>>65414917
So do most band names.
The name worked for their sound, and that's what matters.
>>65414957
lol, that name sounds how I feel
>>65414917
yeah, but so does the band, so it fits
Silver Jews
Bombay Bicycle Club
OK Go
New Young Pony Club
Two Door Cinema Club

>>65415017
I guess if you have 1 door cinema you're out
>>65414990
haha, I guess so
>>65415017
I cringed a little
>>65415017
It's means "don't listen to our music".
Does It Offend You, Yeah?
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Death Cab For Cutie
fucking terrible band name jesus fuck
>>65415086
This and "The The"

as a bonus, they were named after a song by the equally stupidly-named Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band
>>65415160
>Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band
ARRGGGH
>>65415139
The The is cumbersome, but someone had to do it eventually, and the band that did is neat.

Hella
Arctic Monkeys
Catfish and the bottlemen
>death grips
>La Dispute
La Dispute is the worst though, it sound so different when spoken...
>>65417198
How does La Dispute sound different when spoken ? Isn't it just French pronunciation, or is it something weirder ?
