Is it a punk band or something?
I'm sorry they all sound lame to me. I couldn't choose. Try thinking of other ones.

I have to agree with Q.O.D. If I heard any of those, especially the first, I would fall into a coma before even getting to listen to them.

Paper Cuts Paper is the only one that makes sense.
I assume it refers to Paper Rock Scissors.
It is growing on me actually 
The triangle one is plain stupid and the first one sounds like 3 emo band names run together.

I personally don't like any of them amd agree with Liriel. Try skimming through good fantasy books, or the lyrics of the bands influences, that might work. Or take every band members first name and rearrange the letters untill they make sense, or last names or mixes of some such things.

March After Rain In June Under A New Afternoon - Too long; too many prepositions; says absolutely nothing.
I couldn't help notocing its initials spell MARIJUANA, and I suppose that's why he came up with such a long name, in which case I hate it all the more.
Paper Cuts Paper - cutting? Sounds emo.
Purple Orange Triangle - Decide! Is it purple or is it orange. It should be Purplish Orange Triangle, which is still dumb.

Purple and orange are complimentary colors. It should be Gray Triangle.
How about Uninspired Crap? It's certainly descriptive of your unique personal style.

I think we now know why Jokerman is so bad at thinking up band names.

Morrigan, you became 'Elder goth' in 34 days... wow... impressive...
hm... never mind, just something I noticed...
Now for the band names:
'Leave'
'Go away'
'Get the hell out of here!'
'Get lost'
'Fuck off'
:nods:

"I know no Grammer!" That would be cool band name. I was in a punk band named The Muff Divers.

You dare call us idiots? I curse you. Prithee, I curse you from the depths of my little black heart. I'm a goth. I can do this. No, really, I can! I've practiced this skill for years - usually while I'm running like mad to preserve my virginity from these damned gothic vampire types.
I have an idea, call yourself "Go forth and bother us no more".

"March after rain in june under a new afternoon" has overtones of "The Rusty Siberian Traintracks of Our Forbidden Love (sniff)". Ditto "Paper Cuts Paper", but it's better than the last one.

I believe the message in this was way too subliminal for the "person"(and I use the word loosely) who posted this thread...

Well, as far as I'm concerned, I did make some constructive criticism. I just don't like their names.
Tell me the names of some of their songs and the meaning of those songs and I'll help you.

Someone seems a bit oblivious. Here's a clue Jokerman, "You equals lose".
