How can one enjoy The Monkees but not enjoy The Beatles?
You baffle me sometimes, /mu/friends
>>64318768
It's a play on "beat" culture, or beatniks that started in the 50s and were gaining prominence, as well as a play on rock music having a stronger beat than other music. Also, Buddy Holly's band was The Crickets, and they were kind of imitating that, too.
>>64318750
I thought it was because they made Beat Music.
See also: The Merseybeats, The Easybeats
[word][number]
Blink 182
Sum41
and the list goes on
>>64319274
I do enjoy The Beatles. Sometimes.
The 1975. Why? Try googling "1975 albums" now.
The Men and Girls for fucking with search engines
Fennesz for having a z after s. Fucking Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz
Death From Above 1979 because it's too wordly and also is easily mixed up with DFA label
Finally, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart for obvious reasons and for having the gayest name in this thread.

>>64319254
>But Cooper also asked Grohl to reflect on his own musical past – including the goofy band name that started his journey to rock stardom. "Had I imagined that it would last more than a month-and-a-half, I might have named it something else," Grohl says in the above video. "It's the dumbest band name ever."

>>64319353
>The 1975
Why are they called this? Is it just some pretentious shit?
>The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
I'd totally forgot about this band. The History of Apple Pie is the only other dream pop band name I can think of that's as bad as this.

>>64318598

>>64318797
the band death created death metal which is where the genre name originiates so i mean death had a pretty good band name but most death metal band names are pretty generic
I fail to see how any of these band names are gay
>>64318797
you know that band is how the genre got it's name right
>"gay"
>forgetting gays have the best taste
>>64318217
>lets call ourselves metal-ica
Hey, (now I think of it I realized), it's a quite valid name. It's the Latin plural of 'metallicum', meaning neuter 'a thing pertaining to metal'.
>>64327612
>>64327057
Never mind, the only gay band name in the thread.
>>64320483
