binary band

1) a musical group with only two styles of play, "on" and "off;" a band with no variation in genre or style
2) a powermetal band with fast and intense songs that all sound the same

"I used to like Dragonforce, but then I realized that they're a typical binary band."

Tight Band

When a musical group sounds just right as a whole - they are synchronized, supplement (together), and complement (off beat) each other, sounding complete and not overdone.

The Police formed a tight band with just 3 members

Band Homework

When you get to know a band's music well enough that you want to know more about the actual band. Sources include anything you'll find doing a Google search.

Matt: I'm really digging Minus the Bear. I wanted to know where they got their name so I did some Band Homework on the Wikipedia machine and found out...

Dude: Yeah, found out what?

Matt: Hmmm, I forgot. Need to do more Band Homework. I never was good at learning.

Band Basher

A person who critisizes bands that he/she does not like, simply because they dislike the music, so to them the band is therefore crap as a whole, regardless of what anyone else says or how highly revered the band actually are.

Person 1: "Oueen suck they're so overrated, whoever hailed Freddie Mercury as a rock legend wasn't right in the head."
Person 2: "You're such a band basher, just because you don't like them doesn't mean they suck."

Band Random

(adj): Band Random, simply put, is the culmination of inside jokes, peculiar traditions, and all of the zany & funny occurrences that happen during rehearsal. Those in band talking about their misadventures will often highly confuse those who aren't in band, leading those out of the loop to classify the subject of conversation as abnormally random. These "abnormally random" topics are therefore classified as Band Random; more random than normal yet not as random as an acid trip.

Jenn: Hmm, Nikki's status says, "French Horn section + foam swords, battle axes, & maces + water gun + bubble tea after rehersal = FUN NIGHT!"
Danielle: Whoa, that's Band Random!

The Dan Band

The Dan Band is best well known as the wedding band from the movie Old School, in which they performed a profane arrangement of Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” (they also performed the song "Lady"), and as the Bat Mitzvah band performing a sultry, seductive, and maybe pedophilic version of George Benson’s “I feel like making love” in the movie Starsky & Hutch.

The lead singer of the band is Dan Finnerty and he is originally from Bath, New York.

The band’s first LP was released in April, 2005 on Side One Dummy Records and is a live recording of one of their many sold out shows.

The Dan Band constantly tours the country and you should see them live, join their mailing list, and check out their website.

boy bands

I wouldn't even call these "bands" because they play no instruments and can barely sing. To make matters worse, every one follows the same formula:

-- the good looking guy;
-- the talented guy (the only one who can actually sing);
-- the shy, quiet guy;
-- the "older brother" type; and
-- the "bad boy."

Boy bands are creepy. Here's 5 guys in their late-twenties and early-thirties who sing love songs to 12- and 13-year-old girls! Boy bands make R. Kelly look like the Patrib Saint of Chastity!
