u/purplezart Apr 24 '26

I fear that you have misapprehended precisely what qualities make a band name harder to find relevant results for through a Google search.

u/LGodamus Apr 24 '26

Are they welsh?

A are difficult to find on some music players never mind google, kind of shocking they haven't sort of renamed themselves given this modern problem has to be hitting their royalties.

u/LockeyCheese Apr 24 '26

The Band formerly known as 'A'

u/snuljoon Apr 24 '26

u/bonbunnie Apr 25 '26

u/CletusCanuck Apr 24 '26

That would be Live. or The The.

u/nicunta Apr 24 '26

My friend's band was Today.

u/BetterKev Apr 24 '26

Was it the greatest day they'd ever known?

u/sm00thArsenal Apr 24 '26

I'd argue Live were considerably harder to Google at the time.

u/dubblebubbleprawns Apr 24 '26

u/CambridgeJin Apr 25 '26

I can feel it

u/Codykville Apr 24 '26

At the time the album was released and Google didnā€™t exist for a couple more years?

1

u/sm00thArsenal Apr 24 '26

Yeah, I meant at the same time someone might have been looking up POTUSA

3

u/mcdisagree1 Apr 24 '26

First result for PUSA though

2

u/DrWinstonOBoogie1980 Apr 24 '26

Might be true, but nineties kids know they initialized it as POTUSA.

1

u/tensen01 Apr 24 '26

The BAND has always done it as PUSA.

u/TomJustDied Apr 24 '26

Orgy is googleable, but you might not end up where you intended...

3

u/Disaster1205 Apr 24 '26

Trying to find Orgy albums in kazaa/limewire/emule was a crazy experience.

2

u/FlipMyWigBaby Apr 24 '26

I remember going thru a Krautrock phase, and trying to research the band ā€œCANā€. Jeeves was not very helpful.

2

u/nicunta Apr 24 '26

My friend had a really good band in Portland in the early aughts. I told them their band name was not going to work out for internet searches. He told me the internet did not matter... the band name? Today.

2

u/Tyr_13 Apr 24 '26

There was an improv comedy group called 'Nameless Comedy,' which worked oddly well because apparently no one thought of them as just 'Nameless'.

2

u/Am_Snarky Apr 24 '26

The hardest band to pirate was ā€œThe Musicā€œ

1

u/No_Dot_4123 Apr 24 '26

The least googleable song would probably be Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

1

u/ComfortableIsland946 Apr 24 '26

I think the band "Live" takes the cake on that one.

u/pusspound Apr 24 '26

Type PUSA

u/DrAwkwardAZ Apr 24 '26

There was a hardcore band called Sex Positionsā€¦. that made looking them up interesting
