Re: Bands With Animal Names

There's that indie band Manchester Orchestra, which is not Manchester's Orchestra. I've always found that confusing. Also, I do not care for the indie band one jot.

I'd also like to add Frightened Rabbit to the list of animal bands. I don't think we got that one yet.

Some bird bands for you:

The Eagles (worst band ever)
Hawkwind
Budgie
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Old Crow Medicine Show
Pelican
Kestrel
I was thinking this morning about how much I hate The Eagles and it caused me to not be able to go back to sleep. I think Of Montreal, while not musically brilliant, isn't terrible. And I rather like Architecture in Helsinki. I've seen them live and it was a good show.
