Meta Question

Think of your Fluther moniker, if it was attached to a band or genre of music, what do you figure other people would classify it as or what type of music band?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) April 26th, 2015

disclaimer—This is as close to the intended questions as the rules allow.—
Imagine your moniker was attached to a music band or a type of music, what do you believe other people would classify it as, not what you personally think your moniker would represent in the form of a band, music group, frontman with a group, or genre of music? Remember, this is how others would perceive your moniker**, *DO NOT MENTION OR REFERENCE ANYONE ELSE.

If you mean my username, then I guess my band would be a group of J-Pop idols singing Asian pop songs.

^ I guess I can see that, but to me it invokes a Asian jazz-fusion band to me, heavy on the synthesizer or computer augmented keyboard.

That is so cryptic I can’t fathom what the original form of the question might have been.

For me, it depends on whether the other person knows Gaelic, or if they read it as “usual” instead of as “Oo-sul”

@Uasal Yep. Just realized it’s “Uasal” and not “Usual.” Odd how the mind works.

Well since the original question in title form mentioned no members, it said ”Dose certain monikers here on Fluther sounds like a music group or band?”. While you can say “yes”, or “no”, to elaborate you had to mention Jellies, so, the question was verboten. If you left it just as yes or no, with no elaboration it becomes a polling question (keeping in mind nearly all questions on Fluther that cannot be Googled are de facto polling questions) and thus verboten also.

Hm. I’m not sure what other people might classify mine as. Ambient music, maybe?

Hypocrisy_Central's avatar

^ What came to mind about that was an alternative type hard rock band like Green Day, or Pearl Jam.

Probably classical Indian music, like This

I truly don’t have any idea, but I welcome anybody’s opinion on it.

Classical music maybe, like the kind they always play in book stores haha.

If I understand your question correctly, and that is a big “if,” mine would be caterwauling.

Hawaiian or Tahitian

Oh, definitely heavy metal, loud, lots of lasers and pyrotechnics, no big hair or Spandex though.

@OpryLeigh I can see that, a frontwoman with an assemblage of 4–6 backup musicians.

@SQUEEKY2 <<<Easy listening ,fer sure!
If you are speaking modern jazz, I can concur.

@gailcalled If I understand your question correctly, and that is a big “if,” mine would be caterwauling.
I am thinking more Depeche Mode or The Cult.

Oh sure, skip me lol.

Hypocrisy_Central's avatar

^ I missed it, was was trying to get “paumped aup” LOL LOL
You know you would be hard rock to metal, however I can see it as a girl group in black leather with lots of chains and 4 in stilettos. Instead of the traditional bass, the bassist will have an upright double bass.

@Tropical_Willie Hawaiian or Tahitian
I see a fusion of Islander music with a smooth style like Emerson, Lake, and Palmer.

Tropical_Willie's avatar

Actually @Hypocrisy_Central some Rick Wakeman too.

Adagio's avatar

My moniker and avatar conflict with each other, while the moniker suggests classical music, the avatar is a photograph of Robert Plant…hmmm

@whitenoise Cafe music perhaps?

Hypocrisy_Central's avatar

Adagio: pop band with Middle Eastern instruments and flavor laced in.

ucme: under 21 boy band singing teenage angst.

Berserker's avatar

@Hypocrisy_Central Your username sounds like metal, basically on account of some metal bands actually having the word central in them.

ucme's avatar

That from the same source that thinks Tom Kite is a current sportsman, okaaaaaaaaaay.
