Yeah, I started a band a little while ago called Dr. Professorman, (Duh, my username,) and I was wondering if anyone here could help me on a couple issues. The first is figuring out our first album name. Even though we only have 1 song recorded right now, I figure it's never too early to take polls. So, here's your options:
1) Dogs in a Bathtub
2) The Washington Skedaddle
3) Speerical
4) Hammered Wrench
5) Thesaurus for the Disembodied Folk
Huh? HUH?
Once upon a time,
A man looked up at the sky
He thought he saw a bird,
But he was drunk.
The one song we have right now is kinda retarded. It's a 45 second Techno song called "Nevah Evah Oldah." It was improvised during an AIM conversation, and into a crappy microphone, so the sound quality on the vocals and the lyrics are awful. But, it's a funny little song. You can listen to it here: http://www.supload.com/listen?s=IS7PVQTTYMAJ

You should write all the songs that are going to be on the album first, THEN think of an album name based on the style the album is.

Please make your sig either 250 x 100 or 468 x 60 pixels. Thankyou.
Anyway, I'd have to agree about putting the content together first, but since I must pick one, I pick Thesaurus for the Disembodied Folk. It sounds like such an indie album name.

But the whole point is to have an album name that makes no sense. Album names usually don't. Did "Dookie" by Green Day have anything to do with the music? No. None of the songs were about poo.

Also, I have written several songs, and none of them make any sense at all. So I guess an album name that doesn't makes sense sort of relates to them.. but that means it doesn't make sense to have it as a non-sensical album name... but that means it does... hmm.. quite a paradox. Anyway, here's one of my songs:
Elegy to Frank the Kitchen Sponge
Verse 1:
I once knew a sponge named Frank,
What a fantastic guy.
He scrubbed and polished all my things,
Every day and night.
'Till one day, when Frank got sick,
And started puking forth crap
I cried and cried, but he was gone forever
'cause Frank took a dirt nap.
Chorus:
Frank the bright green Kitchen Sponge,
Where have you gone this day?
Frank the happy Kitchen Sponge,
Why did you leave me today?
(Why did you leave me today?)
Verse 2:
After Frank was dead and gone,
We took a look at his will.
It still makes me mad even to this day:
Frank left all his stuff to some guy named Bill.
Bill didn't even bother to come,
To Frank's open casket service,
And that's just when I realized,
Something is really amiss.
Chorus:
Frank you stupid Kitchen Sponge,
What did you put on your will?
Frank you backstabbing Kitchen Sponge,
Who the heck is Bill?
(Who the heck is Bill?)
Verse 3:
I got really, super steamed
And went home to investigate.
If there were any guys named "Bill,"
To whom Frank they might relate.
Sure enough there was one guy,
Not exactly a friend.
Frank owed him a lot of money,
And it built up to the end.
Chorus:
Frank you poor old Kitchen Sponge,
Why are you in debt?
Was Bill your bestest gambling buddy?
Or some sort of threat?
Verse 4:
I wish I could tell you all the rest,
But sadly I cannot.
For I now sit at a river's bottom,
To my legs is tied a rock.
That's right, you guessed it, it was Bill,
Who's done this atrocity.
But don't dig too deep into it,
Or you'll end up just like me.
Chorus:
Frank you freaking Idiot,
I never should've been your friend.
If I see you up in heaven,
I'll smash in your head!
