What is the best band name that comes to mind. For me, it's either Say Anything, my favorite band, or Emery. Both are simple and suggestive and give you that itch to go ahead and listen to them.

I like Thursday, Thrice, and Death Cab For Cutie. They're just simple and won't let you categorize the music until you hear it.
