I hate Noun Verb Noun bands.

Boy Hits Car
Boy Sets Fire
Rock Kills Kid
She Wants Revenge

These are examples of what I am referring to. Noun Verb Noun. For some reason, these bandnames just rub me the wrong way. I simply cannot take a band with a name like that seriously. Your band's name should not be a fucking sentence, it should be a noun. Or possibly an adjective. Or an adjective followed by a noun. Not a sentence or newpaper headline {PLANE HITS BUILDING; EXPLOSION MAIMS FOUR; I LACK CREATIVITY}. It's possible that I'm just crazy and imagining things, kind of like a few years ago when it seemed like every band's name started with The. The Vines, The Hives, The Donnas, The Annoying Bandnames.

Is it just me who feels this way? Do I have some sympathizers here? Are there any other bands that you can think of that fall into this? Are there any trends in music and music related goings-on that just irk you, for some strange reason?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The four I listed at the top are actual bands, look them up on amazon.com. I don't pay much {any} attention to the hip hop world {is it still called hip hop or has that become passe}, but I suppose I have heard of several of those Lil's. It's like, guys, if you're going to call yourself something stupid like beginning your name with little, at least spell the whole word out. I am wondering who Big Kim, John, Weezy, Wayne, Mo, Flip, Scrappy, Romeo, Wyte {wtf} are. I am guessing Lil Eazy-E is someone related to the old school rapper Easy-E from the early 1990s.

And nazpyro, putting Noun Verb Noun bands into the passive voice is strange and yet funny. How did you come up with the idea to try to do that?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In this context it is used as a noun though.

Yeah, the scene thing, that's what I was thinking it was a product of.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I haven't heard much from them, but from what little I have heard, the vocal style makes me slightly uncomfortable, but the music was fairly good. It's probably not something I would further investigate, because of the vocal style, so saying it isn't quite my style sounds pretty accurate.

I never really have been a fan of The Noun bandnames either. And I've really only enjoyed a few The Noun bands' music. I can say that I like such bands as The Cardigans, The Mars Volta, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Presidents of the USA, and The Postal Service. I might be leaving a band or two off, but there can't be many more semi-recent The Noun bands out there that I like.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
