Aesthetics and Names

Thinking about aesthetics here, I think we could pull off a really sweet "dark dazzle" look with ease. The first thing that comes to mind is something like what Zola Jesus does... but I also just want to do something original and highly captivating and conversational. Anyway, take a look at Zola Jesus:

That's just a start. As I said, I want our on-stage presence to be our own creation so don't want to influence it too much.

Name ideas:
deadpan moon
whorled chain
moonless covers
sorrowing spiders
day spiders
variations
european vacation

My friend made an interesting point the other day about sharing names with other bands. He pointed out that your basically competing with those n other bands to be the best [insert name here]. I guess it's kind of true, albeit kind of shitty if another band is exceptionally rad.

Reverb Chris, can you put spring reverb on our stuff? I was playing around with it today and thought it sounded really cool, kind of garage-y. Can we try it on some of our songs?

i really love the word "spider". its creepy, its fun to say, its visually pleasing with the "p" being the upside down "d", maybe we could use this somehow in our band name?

im not sure how i feel about "a shade of greigh". maybe spider could be an ALBUM TITLE?

i would really like a "the" name too, but i dont know. the shade of greigh?
i also dont think we should be too concerned if another small band across the world is using the same name. its silly to be worried about, as long as its unique.

just some thoughts.

DEPRESSING POP LOVE POWER BALLAD LYRICZ

Always turn your back on me
hang up the phone
dont want to talk right now
leave me alone
but the clock on the wall
is laughing at me
and the bird in the cage thatll never be free

and back up, wind up, its all over again
till you come running and im waiting again

its just a case of letting the bird out
"things happen naturally"
just open the cages
come on let the bird out
you say
just let the bird out
let the bird out

i take too many memories
swallow them down
we just havent earned it yet
the upside down frown
always leave me hanging
like a noose on the wall
never wish i met you
ever met you at all

and we use words like love
to get out of jail free
till you make up your mind
and really want me

its just a matter of letting the bird out
"things happen naturally"
just open the cages
come on let the bird out
you say
let the bird out...
let the bird out
