Best Metal band name of all time..

[Nemesis_lxix]

Black Sabbath-My Dying Bride-At The Gates-Atheist-Katatonia-Paradise Lost and my favorite band name Anathema

 

[Bryant]

Stone Fury - not crazy about the band, but the name sticks

Infinity +1 - probably a band out there somewhere named that. Was the name of a band I played in.

The Last Stand - The band my brother and I fronted. He actually thought of the name, but didn't like it. I convinced him it was cool.

Accept - This one may have been "learned" due to my love for them, but at the same time, a common word like that is super cool as a band name.

Voivod - don't like the band, but cool name

Angel Dust - Great name with staying power. Cool band too.

Dream Theater - Brilliant name. Their name personifies them even though they lost me years ago.

honorable mention due to not being a metal band ---- Son Volt. Cool ass name. Brother Cane as well falls into that.

Strapping Young Lad just doesn't seem like a cool metal band name... kind of gayish not that i have anything against gays.. but just doesn't seem metal.. anyways i should of mentioned My Dying Bride on my list... i always thought that was a cool band name.. and was the reason i bought Songs of Darkness, Words of Light ... i bought it blind strictly based on the band name... another one that i bought based on the band name was The Black Dahlia Murder's Unhallowed album.... i thought and still think that was a cool metal band name.. so my list is for now:

1. Black Sabbath and Metallica (Metallica i have to revise my reason is because of the clever way they use the word "Metal")

2. AC/DC

3. My Dying Bride

4. The Black Dahlia Murder

also honorable mention though im not sure what kind of music they play but i seen there name in the Village Voice here in NY .... The Brian Jonestown Massacre

As cliche as it sounds, Metallica wins. It's just that one word the screams metal when you hear it. Just hits me in the right way when it's said.

Sabbath/Priest come in second.

 

[Amodeus_308]

Slayer
Mayhem
Rotting Christ
Dying Fetus
Carpathian Forest

 

[Punk Vic]

Megadeth
Katatonia
Anathema

Metallica. It's a shame that they still got the name. Metallica means "Pure Metal", and this is what it once was

metallic- an adjective describing an alloy of such substances (gold, silver, ect.)

sad they are suing the swedish metal workers union who has been using the name Metallica for a long time.

I think some of these bands have awesome metal band names:-

Black Sabbath
Satan
Demon
Angel Witch (think AW is a classic name for band)

And I've always thought Diamond Head was a superb name for a band.

Acid Rain

I like that name as well. I mentioned Angel Dust and it has sort of the same vibe. The song "Acid Rain" by Angra is also my very favorite by them.


I unfortunately left AC/DC off my list. Metal or not, the name is perfect. AC/DC = electricity.... electricity = power. Powerful name. Malcolm should be proud.
