What's Worse: Band Name Edition

breesays Jul 27, 2009
A band name can seem like a trivial thing, but they have the potential to mold first impressions before a single note wafts into your willing ears. It’s certainly a thing you can get past, but we have to wonder… did they think their decisions through before imprinting it on 500,000 CDs? Don’t get your panties in a bunch, because we’re not judging their music—just their names. Which is worse? Think it over.

    Red Jumpsuit Apparatus doesn't make any sense. but Falling in Reverse kinda does. its like regular falling is just falling. but falling in reverse is standing up. so i guess its like when you fall down but get back up. thats what i get from it.

    Hmm, well I can think of many "bigger" bands that have wayyyy weirder names. Both bands are from Buffalo.

    The Devil Wears Prada was not named after the movie. The name came from the fact that the devil disguises himself as something glamorous and beautiful, while he's actually evil. If you listen to the lyrics, you'll realize they're Christians.

    They're horrible names, bahaha. I like The Devil Wears Prada but I think they just named it after the book (movie sucked) & You Me And Everyone We Know...they must have ran out of ideas or something. xD
