International Noise Conference: the best band names in the world
My Band played at the International Noise Conference when it stopped at the Nightlight in Chapel Hill, NC, April 29th. We played as our sideproject power electronics harsh noise group, "Lord Satisfaction", and started the show out with high energy and violence. I can link the poster.. http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o258/RyMars/inc_flyer_photo.jpg
What amuses me about this one - Dickhearse discourse on Dickhorse [Portland] - is that they've qualified it with Portland on the end, as if they don't want you to confuse this band with any other bands called Dickhearse discourse on Dickhorse.
Not to be a dick or anything, but I'm pretty sure my band has the greatest name ever, Other People. And I'm not being egotistical because I didn't come up with the name.
right, I could see prohibiting the gear one brings on stage, but "no drones?" what qualifies? and what happens to those who commit this heinous act? sudden fade out on the PA, shunned for the rest of the night.
It's no drones, because otherwise you'd have some boring shoegaze noise-wannabe guy making ambient drones, and these shows are supposed to be about high energy and aggression. At least that's what we thought we were supposed to do. Nothing's worse than a room full of people standing around with their arms folded "listening intently", fuck that, people should be going nuts and hitting each other to high frequencies and yelling.
Here's a Vice magazine article about the guy behind the INC:

ReplyDeleteHere's one like that, that isn't there: Afghanistan Banana Stand.
Afghanistan Banana Stand is from the 1972 movie "The Hot Rock" with Robert Redford.
ReplyDeleteTry something more original..

ReplyDeleteunenforceable pedantry.

ReplyDeleteCue *sound of 'Wire' hacks scrabbling for their notebooks*
Venereal Sandwich? Jesus...
ReplyDeleteI don't even know what to say about the mental images that go along with that one.
Actually, I think "Venereal Sandwich? Jesus..." is much better.
