<description>A couple months ago I made up a fictional band called Crowbar who had an unclean, germ spreading bass player. Sure enough, there is a real band called Crowbar from New Orleans. They play sludge-core and sound exactly like you...</description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>It would totally be a good drinking game. </p>

<p>Make the band name up, but you also have to make up how you think they will sound. If you're off, you drink.  If the band doesn't exist, you chug.  If you're close, everyone else drinks.</p>

<p>For Crowbar, everyone would have been drinking.</p>

<p>From the All Music Guide:</p>

<p>"Like the tool from which they take their name, Crowbar specialize in manipulating and battering heavy objects. Sludge: History of Crowbar offers a 15-song glimpse -- taken from six albums -- into this New Orleans band's extremely down-tuned heavy metal history. Like a stripped-down version of Pantera, Crowbar employs heavy-string guitar chugging, stops and starts, and macho vocals, but without the trebly leads. Essentially, this is tough-guy metal, a hybrid of New York hardcore, the life of pain vocals of Henry Rollins, and slow, plodding riffage. Certainly not for the meek, Crowbar play exactly the kind of music they look like they would play; judging from photos, there probably isn't a band member under 200 pounds, and they look as if they've been unloading trucks all day prior to picking up their instruments. If you like metal played as heavy and skeletally as humanly possible -- with absolutely no frills -- this is certainly a good place to find it." ~ Patrick Kennedy, </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Awesome post <i>and</i> I enjoy Nightwish!</p>

<p>As a side, Satan's Fingers and the Hospital Bombers is actually a reference to The Mountain Goats' <a href="http://www.themountaingoats.net/lyrics/ahwtx_lyr.html" rel="nofollow">The Best Ever Death Metal Band In Denton</a>.</p>

<p>The running joke is that The Killers also stole their name from the song.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>The double split twirl goatee.  I'm doing that.  </p>

<p>I'll be doing to band name drinking game too.  </p>

<p>My first pick:  Discharge.  That HAS to be a band name.</p>

<p>BTW, I've been laughing at 'Plow Fire 60' for an hour now.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>I take my first pick and change it to: Mr. Discharge.</p>

<p>A 'Mr.' in front of anything ups the chances of it being an existing band name.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>'Fire' and 'Mr.' in front of things does usually work as band names.  Really, 'Fire' after a word works as well.  For my guess, I'll go with -- The Elk Banana Cannon.</p>]]></description>
