But does anyone know what I mean? Since the The strokes and The Hives came out, we've had five years of gormless bands calling themselves "The" whatevers. The Artic Monkeys for example, I knew they'd be shit even before I'd heard them.

well.. apparently some of them really are djs, but there seems to be some general misconception in the trance culture that a DJ makes the music.. certain other people who are both djs and artists only use the DJ when they actually are djing and when they're releasing they only use their "artist name" without the DJ prefix.. trance is weird.

Yeah, I understand that we had bands called The... before The Strokes! I'm not that young!
It just seems that these groups are using "The" again (after nineties bands like Pulp, Nirvana, etc, stopped using it generally) to signify "classic" rock and fit in with all the other successful bands around now.

The Xltronics is a folkpunk band from upper dakota right by the second gas station on your left after you leave aunties house. Their eclectic style of music brings to mind such bands as The WATMMS, The Hurdles, The Flicks, The Ripe Incest Victims and The The Famous Grouses, and with such an impressive list of references you know you just have to see this amazing twentysix-piece live band live tonight at The gas station!
Lineup: Drunken Mastah - Guitar dog_belch - Guitar giginger - Guitar swears - Guitar mcbpete - Guitar redrum - Guitar Anus_Presley - Guitar i_x_ten - Guitar ambsace - Guitar GeminiFlipFlop - Guitar kelp7 - Rhodes melack - Guitar justme - Guitar thodob - Guitar pf - Guitar uzim - Lead Guitar SValx - Guitar r40f - Guitar futureimage - Guitar chambre noire - Guitar K300i - Guitar apydiagirls - Bass edga - Guitar big - Guitar furoi - Guitar qrter - Guitar oyvinto - Guitar hma - Guitar bogala - Guitar duppy - Guitar horsefactory - Guitar DeLtoiD - Guitar sadist - Guitar Combo - Guitar child810 - Guitar Quino Strider - Lead Guitar

Lush and Ride made at least one good album each! And don't forget Slowdive. A shoegazing revival would be...well shit, probably.

"Spooky" the Cocteau Twins-ish one. Not Lovelife that's just cheesy. I downloaded Split, it was just OK.
Nowhere by Ride is nice too.

here's some real band names:
-Psycho Sluts from Mars (90s-ish girl metal band) -Eggs (some random band i heard about, one of their members was in SPIN)
-The Vinnie Vincent Explosion (nightmare-inducing glam-metal band with the hit single "Boyz R Gonna Rock")
-Tourette's Syndrome (awful death metal group, featuring songs like "Where's Jesus Now, Bitch")
and a band my friend's dad knew called "Bowel Movement," whose demo was entitled "Listen to this Crap." (ironically, the music was quite good)

Ride were good, up to and including "Going blank again" IMO, then I liked one song when they suddenly became Creation after that. I had the first ep, oh what was it.. "Drive Blind" was on it that ends in wah-wah frenzy. Good though. The singer Mark's band after was alright, was it TheAnimalHouse, something like that. Nothing to go wild about, mind.
Then I saw Andy Bell play with Oasis last month.... the music.. pfff, terrible really, just, a noise, bluster, a drunkard bellowing in your ear down the pub. Shame really.

i don't agree. aliases should only be used if that's a concept. Personally i find it stupid when i learn that two or more projects are one person in fact. This is connected with copyright stuff and contracts, if seriously, but people who start making music and are not signed to any big serious label are starting to brand themselves with often stupid and meaningless words.
Of course, it is everyones own business.
I'd like it if names were taken from some books, or films, for example, and in such case continued the context. For example, in some book there is a project name GNOY & SOPLY which plays gero-techno. And some person decides to bring it to life.
When the band is more than one person, it is of course nice to name the group to reduce the quantity of letters.
I hate that RDJ has numerous aliases. Why the fuck? For life not to be too easy?
copyright stuff is the only excuse for that. -> imho
