Best Band Name Based On A Nico Song Title

Lawns of Dawns by far

Janitors of Lunacy is an ok name but a little too "WHOAAAAA PSYCHEDELIC"
Little Sisters is alright

the other ones are all terrible band names

hmmm, yeah, maybe janitors is too much of an xtc-side project kinda thing. i don't think the chelsea girls is terrible! kinda hard to believe there isn't already a famous indie rock band named that.

If I may quote Ian Svenonius:

The powerful associative effect of names is often misunderstood. While fondly thought of, mammalian names are a mistake--unless one chooses a mythical beast. A wild animal is a graceful creature that needs no clothes or grooming to look spectacular, and your onlookers--their expectations heightened--will inevitably be disappointed by the oafish onstage display of whatever crew of humanoids you've managed to muster. "Oh dear," they will say, "they are nothing like wolves/foxes/etc." If one hangs sucha name on one's group, one is raising the bar too high.

Male groups with "Girls" in their name have a similar problem. In literature and film, the "girl" represents the reader's/viewer's pure self-image. The audience is supposed to identify with the "girl," who is innocent, brave, artless, attractive, and clever (e.g., Chihiro of Spirited Away, Pippi Longstocking, and Dorothy Gale from The Wizard of Oz). Film noir is predicated on the opposite idea--that audiences like to identify with cynical, morally bankrupt, been-there done-thats. These roles are typically played by middle-aged men with five o'clock shadows (Humphry Bogart, Glenn Ford, Robert Mitchum). Most groups now resemble the stars of the noir genre, physically if not sartorially. Bands with "Girl" in their name are almost invariably these kinds of hairy and less attractive men. As a rule, then, males should avoid group names with "Girl."

actually Purple Lips is ok

"The Falconers" just makes me think of an overly precious male-female indie duo with a Wes Anderson aesthetic

the Girls boys were kinda cute iirc

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Voted for 'Abschied', as it's the most goth-y name.

Abschied is a good name

Valley Of The Kings is an ok name, i like it

Frozen Warning sound like power metal dweebs with a chubby bloke on bass, so them.

The Pleasure Thens

Abschied would also look good rendered as a twiggly black metal logo.

Checked the Encyclopaedia Metallum, not a single result for 'Abschied.' Someone needs to do something about it.

I misread this as "Brand Name" and was like "mm yes I would like some Frozen Warning ice cream thx"

Lawns of Dawns Overnight Landcaping: we'll have your grass cut by dawn!

Janitors of Lunacy: we'll have your facility so clean you'll think we're INSANE

haha

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

When you're Abschied, every tour is a farewell tour

Did a composer once write a piece titled "Cancelled", in order to have that word on all the signs at the concert? Or have I dreamt hearing about this thought-provoking prank?
