Can
Ark (and The Ark, I suppose, but that band might be easier to find)
X

I guess heaps of names like Botch, Clutch, Death and Carcass would be too, but those would be easy to find just by adding say "metal", "grind", "Hardcore" or whatever to the search.

― Øystein Holm-Olsen (Øystein H-O), Thursday, 12 June 2003 21:14 (twenty-three years ago)

"The Presidents of the United States of America"

― PappaWheelie B.C., Thursday, 29 September 2005 21:24 (twenty years ago)

Googleproof can be extended into "difficult to download", which is a good marketing tool...as long as the album title is also gooleproofed.

― PappaWheelie B.C., Thursday, 29 September 2005 21:25 (twenty years ago)

Andy of XTC said that his band's rather tough to find in Google, too

Tre, have you guys put out or considered putting out any rekkids with clever titles like Get The Results You Want, Now! ?

We've tried to go out of our way to NOT use puns like that, though the temptation was too great for "Election Results" when we played on Election Night, 2002.

And Limp Bizkit did NOT do us any favors with their last album.
