Here is my problem:
 
My band and I have 2 Instrumental songs that we aren't able to find siutable names for.
Everything we have tried to come up with is stupid and pointless and these are lengthy pieces that need a really good name - But we cant think of anything...
 
I was wondering, did you guys ever have any good ideas for names? I'm really out of ideas!
 
 
 
We haven't recorded these pieces yet so I have nothing to show you guys, so If you got any "generally good" names id be very greatful if you post em here!
 
 
 
thanks :P

You have a band? I'm jealous.
Anyway, how about "There are too many chickens on my ant farm" or "Electric laser politics"?

Nice names so far I just would like to give it a bit of direction:
 
The first part is a 10 minute creepy dark and crazy epic - not metal but sortof full of sortof complicated sh*t that gives it a spooky crazy feel and makes your head hurt.
 
The second is 8 minutes and is mostly a straight forward piece with blues and jazz influences, until about the middle - where it becomes more dramatic and has some classical harmonies and a very odd time signature of 15/8 with a very weird poly rythm that I can't even bother to count. The ending is very classical and it resembles the ending of "The Musical Box", only a bit different and in a minor key....
 
thanks

I have a file that is dedicated to titles. Everytime I come across something that sounds like a great title, I write it in there. Now no matter what I'm working on, I have a list ready of titles.

Hey, that's a good idea! Maybe I should keep a list of titles...

We got to pump the stuff to make us tough

^Take it easy man. You gotta attract those kids somehow, why not through the power of catchy song names that make no sense?
