Get Cape Wear Cape Fly

I always liked this name, it reminds me of text adventures.

i thought it was an intentional reference! particularly since the name is I think "get cape. wear cape. fly."

Drink potion

Oh yeah, I think it probably is intentional, I just wasn't sure so didn't want to assert it as fact.

tbh this reminds me that I've always struggled to come up with an apt comparison to "Car Seat Headrest". It's such a perfectly maximized trio of mundane, arbitrary and clunky. The perfect worst band name ever. Like naming your band Bottom Left Cabinet Hinge or something else from a random page of a product manual.

Just "Gay Witch" would be pretty good.

Garcia People’s

^^ genuinely love these dudes and couldn’t get into the name at first but have since gone to appreciate its youthful sincerity.

ian, Tuesday, 23 May 2023 22:19 (ten months ago) link

Gay Witch Abortion is one of the best band names, wtf?

Just got a promo email about an artist (not a band, just a guy) named Cautious Clay.

Perfect Pussy is a great band name

Imperfect Penis is not as good

(I guess it's actually not too bad, but sure made me eyeroll)

haven't heard the name dogs die etc for years but it always upset me, you have to be a real arsehole to want that image to accompany all of your music

― your original display name is still visible (Left),

otm ... there are plenty of names mentioned in this thread that are "ugh no" because they refer to things that are gross in an embarrassing way ... like all the piss and shit names ... but dogs die in hot cars is gross and depressing
