Currently thinking about various different possibilities for band names for a death/black metal band I want to start. My girlfriend helped me out with this tonight. She is an English grad student so she's familiar with some old English and whatnot and suggested a bunch of cool sounding names that have really fucking metal meanings. Kind of a weird way to come up with band names since girlfriends are highly unmetal but she seems to understand what sort of things will be acceptable and what things will be false/unmetal, so that's very good.
I have a whole concept of what I want this thing to be, and I even have some lyrical concepts worked out. I have riffs which might be described as the bastard child of Adramelech and Sacramentum. I need to find a drummer but at this point I'm so out of touch with the metal people in my area that it's difficult to recruit people. I plan on doing all guitars and vocals and possibly bass if I can be bothered to buy a bass and a suitable amp for that. Whatever, I just know that I need to make something that I'm proud of (a good demo or something) before I depart from my Earthly existence.
