What Was Our Name? Pop Culture Roulette

Somehow, we’ve accidentally created a trilogy.First, we asked “What’s My Name?” Then we moved on to movies and their former titles. And now, because apparently we have learned absolutely nothing, we’re doing it again with bands in “What Was Our Name?”Just like the previous two episodes, we’ve turned the whole thing into a game. This time, we’re digging into bands that didn’t always go by the names we know today. We’ll uncover the names they started with, the names they almost became famous under, and the names they eventually left behind — and then see if we can figure out which bands were hiding behind them.Along the way, we get some questionable band names, some surprising name changes, and plenty of opportunities to wonder how anyone thought that was a good name in the first place.Is this technically a trilogy? Sure. Is it a trilogy anyone asked for? Absolutely not. But after “What’s My Name?” and our movie name-change game, we apparently decided there was one more chapter that needed to exist.So play along with us, test your music knowledge, and see how many of these bands you can identify before they became the bands we know today.Give it a listen, keep score if you want, and let us know how you did. And as always, thanks for playing along with Pop Culture Roulette!#PopCultureRoulette #Smashland #PCR #Music #Bands #RockAndRoll #BandNames #MusicTrivia #PopCulture
