My dear friend from High School Katie came over to visit today. Our conversation went from "Hey remember how you just signed up for Facebook?" (I know guys, seriously she's way behind the flow.) to "Do you know what it's time for?"

"I do know, yes."

"I can't even tell you how badly the need is to be friends on Twitter."

"I don't have a twitter name! I need a name before I can sign up."

The conversation really devolved from there, and we decided the best way to find her hopeful Twitter name was to nab a book (we picked The Chronicles of Narnia series), point at a couple words on a random page and BAM: twitter name.

As it turns out, this technique is seriously better suited for naming crappy indie bands than Twitter names. Here are a few we came up with.

River Fear

Crimson Quiet

All Beasts

Witch Voices

Already You

Waiting Puddles

Whispered Head

Gentle Brothers

Despised Silence

Indistinct Skies

Dressed Seamen

Beaver's Memories

Hesitated, Parted.

Dangerous Edge

Now since we've been having a grand 'ole time laughing our faces off at these ridiculous indie bands, let's give them each an album and a single. Four words for the album, five for a single. Let's go. We'll do the first few, then you send us your best attempts for the rest!

Album Title: Moment Happening in Breakfast
The Single: Said Mounted in Great September
