Guest Satyam Shivam Sundaram Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Originally posted by Stephen:Screaming NebraskaNebraska originally becuase of such people as conor oberst being from there. and it generally sound coool. Screaming came in when picked loadsa things to go in front or behind nebraska cause didnt believe sounded great on its own. Screaming was picked as majority vote.also its deliberatly non-descript so people cant tell what kinda band we are when read the name. Or Kenny's gig explanation: "we're called Screaming Nebraska because It sounds a lot fucking better than Screaming Aberdeen!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Satyam Shivam Sundaram Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 Originally posted by Lester Burnham:The Sultry Acoustics - I pipped this one up when I was drunk, initially myself and my partner in crime decided for a softer approach to music, hence the usage of acoustic guitars etc. Sultry because... it's one of the words i'm fixated with and as Hog once said, I allegedly have, "sultry" eyes... that's an egotist's explanation of that one... and "The" because it's such a 'hip' and 'with it' word to use, man.

Guest Lisa Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 broken sunshine...well we had a selection of four words:pink,sunshine,glass and broken and we thought broken sunshine sounded the best.well i think that's possibly the worst explanation for a band name so far.

Jimmy Lucifer Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 I just thought We Become Less sounded cool. It's from a poem by William Blake. Plus it can mean tons of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 mexican bandit moustache was named after the false moustache that i used to wear for a laugh sometimes. cure for cancer is a total rip off of the sort of names i've heard from the san francisco bay area like, the quest for quintana roo etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Kitchen Cynics grew out of a punk band called the Unusual Kitchen Features, who were named after plastic lobsters in the Colour Box (on Holburn St) window. I kept the Kitchen bit and made a bad pun out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowWhite Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Originally posted by Lisa:broken sunshine...well we had a selection of four words:pink,sunshine,glass and broken and we thought broken sunshine sounded the best. Actually, that's not really it-there's a longer explanation. I came up with Broken Glass when we were first talking about the band actually becoming a band, cus I saw a sign on a bus that said something about no broken glass...I dunno t'was ages ago. But we thought that sounded kinda hardcore screamy, so we scrapped that idea.Then, weeks later, Lucy just randomly said Pink Sunshine. Which was cool, but a little indie I think. So we told someone else and they came up with the idea of putting them together. So we had Pink Glass, which was a little weird. And finally came to Broken Sunshine. That's the whole, really long explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
