The Band — No Use For A Name

NO USE FOR A NAME are a four-piece punk rock band from San Jose, CA, and have been the torchbearers of the skate-punk scene since Tony Sly and Rory Koff started the band in 1987. Anyway, they’ve got a greatest hits album coming out on the Fat Wreck Chords label in a couple of weeks, appropriately titled “All the Best Songs” which they will be promoting, no doubt, in an upcoming concert in their hometown at a club called — drumroll please — The Blank Club. “Keep Them Confused” is the name of the latest record by the band.

Other bands, that might have a use for a name, should check out Wordlab’s great list of names in categories for rock bands and albums, or tap into the fleshy membranes that lurk on our Wordboard thinking up wild and wonderful names for bands. For those who prefer their names created by one of those band name generators, there’s always this band name maker.

And, when all is said and done, this just might be the greatest name for a band, ever.
