SEKAI NO OWARI means "the end of the world", and at first glance, may even seem like a song title. People may have felt uncomfortable with the name at first, but as they grew in popularity, their name has been abbreviated into SEKAOWA, and all the awkwardness has disappeared. And there seems to be an increase in the number of bands which have names that may seem like song names at first glance.
3-piece rock band "Wasureranneyo", girl band "Akai Kouen", up and coming "Gesu no kiwami otome.", artistic punk band "Soredemo sekai ga tsuzuku nara", 6-piece band "Shippai shinai ikikata". There are also "Sayonara ponytail", "Sayonara, mata kondo ne", "Tesla wa nakanai", and "Mori wa ikiteiru". It does seem that a lot of new artists aren't confining themselves now to traditional band names like "The _____" or "~~~s", "~~~ts".

It's also funny when you've got a weird band name but not a distinct musical style - 32: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 14:33:56 ID:v95W9vWlO
- >>5それ、いつも思うんだけどさ。本当につまらない音楽が増えたのか、自分が年を取って感受性が落ちただけなのか。
I always think about that, but I'm just not sure if it's just that the amount of boring music out there has increased or I have gotten older and my sensitivity has gone down. - 36: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 14:36:05 ID:ROBCUYiH0

To think that these bands sing in Japanese, they try to look cool and make their band name English?
I heard that foreigners find that lame, so bands nowadays are making the right choice w - 19: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 14:26:35 ID:ROBCUYiH0

They're including a lot of wtf English words in the lyrics, and pronounce the words like English...
But does this mean that they will they sell a lot more if everything's completely in English? Not exactly. - 90: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 15:05:32 ID:BklIu6P10

Won't there be someone who'll do some revolutionary kind of music? Or do the record companies hate that kind of stuff? Everything from the year 2000 onwards just sounds like rehashes of music from the '90s. And this is why these charts now are dominated with Akekasu and Janis. - 16: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 14:25:48 ID:KvzNezND0

- 最初っから｢えっ!?｣って思われる事を狙って名前をつけてるんだろうに。あと｢自分達は普通とはちょっと違う｣っていうのをアピールしたい自己顕示欲っていうか。一種の流行りみたいなもんじゃないの？別に最近の若者の意識の変化とかいう大げさなもんでもない気がするが。These bands are of course aiming for that surprise factor when naming themselves.
And they also want to show that they're slightly different from the norm.
It's just what you call "asserting yourself".
Isn't this just a form of fad? I don't think that there's a huge change with the thought process of kids nowadays, and that people should be making a fuss about it. - 62: 名無しさん＠恐縮です 2014/03/18 14:51:24 ID:qbFcacpf0
