Each of which will be taken somehow. You need to make up cool sounding words.

Like Vomorrea.

That's what black-metal bands do, and the names almost always sound like shit. "Borknagar", "Naglfar", "Abigar", "Vadaath", etc. They all sound so ridiculous.

I guarantee that every one of those is already used. Unless you start looking for more mundane words like "Foot" and "Car", using a single word usually doesn't pan out as a band name. Two or three words isn't over the top. Excessively long band names are real ones like "Day Of Deadwater Drowning", "From A Second-Story Window" or "Through The Eyes Of The Dead". "Bastard Machine" (which, by the way, does not share a word with the title "Deus Engine") is by no means too long a title. It's not a great name, but it's in no way too long.

I'd think that a band name would actually convey some meaning, while being a simple label.

'Bastard Machine' strikes me as ludicrous.

I feel like an idiot. For some reason, engine and machine registered in my head as the same word.

Just try and remember it this way. Fiction = for real. Non-fiction = non-real.

How so? Like I said, it's not a great name, but I fail to see how it's ludicrous. What relevance does "Static-X" have to their sound or lyrics, beyond the fact that the singer changed his last name to match it?

You see the problem w/ all the names in this thread is non of them are catchy. In order to be catchy they should require either some intellect or humor.
Come up with something better, then.

Not meaning to insult it Raz, I meant that it doesn't really convey any meaning to me. It just feels like 2 words put together.

I'll think a bit about it.

Go for some kind of English word that when translated into another language sounds good...

Even better, see if Voll will let you use "Vollstrecker"...

Haha, vollstrecker would be sweet.

You can always call yourselves, "The band without a name."

"nothing" is my name, simply because I couldn't think of anything to write down.

Pyroclasm, Deus Engine, and Bastard Machine sound the best out of what you've got so far, but I think you can do better.
