All right guys, I'm in a pickle. I just formed a stoner/sludge metal band and I can't think of a name. I need ideas that aren't absolutely retarded, so please give it some thought.
Recently I got really into Stoner Doom and I've always had that thing for Tolkien influenced metal and I tried mixing shits from both universes together.
Stoned Dwarves
High Over Mount Doom
And if you really want some stoner/sludge names. I can give it a try. It could be funny
- Weed Magnet
- Blunterized
- Numb Distortion
- Give Me Bacon (totally unrelated, but I think that's kind of the point. Does it even have to make sense? Cause once you start flying, nothing really matters)
- Acid Bath (oh wait...)
- Mushtache (Can't say why, but the idea of mixing Mushroom and Mustache made me laugh)
In fact, anything with too much of the letters "Z" and "W" would do. Can't think of anyone right now though :P
Remember to tell me what you think about those. Even if you think that they suck. I had a good time thinking about those :D

Me...
Metal is much more sophisticated than this...
In fact, even if Death Metal is one of my favorite metal genres, I can't stand all these gore shits anymore. These stupid lyrics are ruinning the music. I mean, there is so much work on the riffs, so much work on the drums and such great bass lines. Even the vocals are great. But why is it that the lyrics must sound like they were written in 10 minutes after the band took three years to write their fucking album?
It's ridiculous and makes us metalheads look like retarded teenagers. Not like I really care about what people think. But when you are having an argument with someone, explaining him why metal is such a great add to the history of music. You tell them about the great atmospheres created by the music, creativity, raw talent and skill and so on. But then you get to the lyrics...
So many bands have great lyrics, but when it comes to Death Metal and a lot of Black Metal... it just goes down. At least bands like Benighted and Origin keep it up. Even if they are quite brutal, the lyrics are still good.
No really, I can still have a great laugh listenning to Cliteater, but Blood Red Throne and the such should move on to something better.

Everyone who isn't in a death or grind band.
