Naming a band is a difficult, but important task. It’s often the first thing potential fans know about you, and can really affect whether they decide to give listening to you a chance or not. While plenty of incredibly successful bands have had terrible names (The Beatles – is that a pun? It’s rubbish), a lot of great band names give you an idea of what you’re in for before you’ve heard a note. Napalm Death sound exactly how a band called Napalm Death should sound. So do Metallica. And so do Dogshit Sandwich.
