Getting away with taking simple names like Yes or Tool before anyone else, is cool.
But if it comes to names that trill the mind, think i like these most:
Grateful Dead
Gentle Gaint
The Mars Volta (would be even better without "the")
Acid Mother Temple
Balck Sabbath

There's an "edit this post" function listed under the "post options" menu next to the quote button. You should have edited your first post to add "Sunday all over the World" instead of quoting yourself and adding it. |

"Van der Graaf Generator" is my favourite. The name sounds full of power and mystery (like their music).
"Curved Air" is quite brilliant too - a lovely description of what music is.
"Public Foot the Roman" is a name that has always caught my imagination, but i don't know much about them.

For all of Prog's brilliance, the band names are notoriously bad.
The one's that stick out as good to me are: Present The Resident's Antidepressive Delivery Ruins Theory in Practice Eskaton |
