I have a band, we need a name. Please help!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Me and my friends have started a band. We have thought of a few cool names but we can't pick one. If your wondering what kind of music we play we're metal, but I can't really describe what band we sound most like. Anywho the names are:
Point Blank (yes it is a TF reference)
Salacity (it means an intence sexual desire)
Hunter X (it's a name i've used in Various RPG's)
Fatal Error (uh... I wonder what that means :roll: )
Sincerely Yours (I think it sounds kinda too emo to me)
Autobots transform and........... wait what was I saying again? Dude Roddimus I'm so baked right now.

I went with Point Blank (nothing to do with the fact that where I'm currently sat, I've got a Peacemaker pointed straight at me, no siree!), but then I wondered if there was already a Point Blank out there.

Turns out there's three:

Don't Even Mention Them are awful middle of the road crap.

They Were Once Cool - well if that's the case it certainly wasn't recently.

But Sold Out With Their Sophomore Album - looked like they had potential but i think the lifestyle got the better of them.

In fact they are all so irrelavant to what is hip and cutting that i am embaressed on your behalf that you mentioned any of them. They are hardly as good as Salty Grapes or Men Who Combust are they?

Mark my words? i would mark their words - with a sh**ty stick. They are the antithesis of what good music should be. they lack soul. They are bereft of rythem. Thet eshew originality. They make me want to yell 'fannies' in a loud voice at the heavens.

I found i enjoyed it at first, slowly building to a crescendo of pleasure.

Sadly though the album was quite short... cough.
