The Band Name
13 years ago
General
We wanted to ask you all what you thought of changing the band name (Yes, again).
It's not that we don't like ADDF, it's just that so many changes have happened in the last few days.
For instance,
Due to disagreements about the band's purpose, our singer,
, has left the band.
So, we have a different singer, and we're adding a keyboard. Our sound is about to get a lot heavier. Old songs are going to be transformed from a dated alternative rock sound, to a seriously metal hardcore grind.
Different sound, less people, new vocalist... should we keep the band name? Or should we come up with something else for the new sound? Your input will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Derrick Lesters
If anyone cares as to why the singer left,
Because the three of us chose to only play furry conventions, he believed that we were on the road to nowhere. And he may be right, but I don't care about fame, fortune, or getting signed or any of that bullshit. Playing music, for me, is about entertaining the audience. For me to have an enjoyable experience playing music, there has to be an audience.
If we could play at furry conventions with crowds of 100+, why put ourselves through the bar scene with 20 people that are not paying attention? I'm in it for the fun. I am a strictly furry musician who will play only at cons because I know it is a way to avoid empty shows.

Poop...
Idk
-shrugs and walks off thinking about life-
1 - since you already threw the name out there in a MAJOR way at oklacon, a name change so soon after might throw people.
2 - it's a unique name. even on google y'all are like the WHOLE first page of search results.
3 - since you're going to make the sound alot heavier, the name already SCREAMS heavy or death metal. granted i don't listen to much death metal, but this is the kind of name that would make me think "hey, they must do death metal" at first glance.
