I picked Missed by an Inch too.
A friend of mine is in a band too, I think they're being called Red Voodoo this week, but I'm trying to get them to change it to Slow Children at Play.

Sure you can [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Metal, classic, a lot of other rock (if you can find the right artist) is full of meaningful lyrics that can move a lot of people. I like very, very little rap music and no offense Vaskez, most of it just a bunch of negative crap anyway.

I like the old style rap, not the new stuff, it makes no sense to me, but give me one from RunDMC and I will be happy [img]smile.gif[/img]

[/QUOTE]You haven't had someone like me to sift through the crap and show you the light A lot of it is negative, yeah, but it's still funky anyway, I'm not gonna have another debate about this....suffice to say, I see where you're coming from, but I'm not interested. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

anyway, there're certain categories in which rap would win hands down among all the genres. Two examples:

best beat and greatest lyrical dexterity from an artist (anyone who's heard some Twista tracks or Bone Thugs-N-Harmony will know what I mean

I'm having trouble voting for one, as I don't understand any of the band names, really. [img]smile.gif[/img] I think you should look at your past and make up a name that means something. Just a friendly suggestion. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Out of the ones you listed here, I would've chosen Bleeding Melodies if it hadn't reminded me of 'making ears bleed.'


The same goes for Enthralled By Silence. Doesn't the name kind of hint that the music would be bad - That the listener would deem it so bad he'd be enthralled by silence?

Gentle Divinity implies that you make soft music, which I think isn't the case.

Less Than A Miracle is probably the one you should choose, if you want one of these names. In my opinion, that is.

But Vaskez, if you sift through the crap, there's nothing left to be shown the light

I'm not here to debate over it Vaskez, I'm just telling you how it is in my opinion. Besides, I argue with you enough in enough threads as it is [img]tongue.gif[/img]
