How many ideas is that now? I can't be bothered to count. I could reel off hundreds! I thought of all of these right now (when I posted this) and each one took me about seven seconds. Want any more?
Guessing. These could be songs, albums, band name, slogan (or bits of one)
do what you like with them. Most of these aren't as good as the others.

we should start narrowing down our choices and picking a name

Too Many names! 

I could add synths and vocoders. Unless I'm too late...

I already got synths covered, but I don't happen to have any vocoder equipment, so that may be useful in the future.

Great!

Well, I want everyone to agree with the name, so, I also really liked the Deviants.

Maybe we should start making music, and the band name will come to us naturally. Probehaeds (yes with that spelling), can be our temporary band name until then.

You're right. We'll take our name inspiration from our music. 

I was wondering whether or not you guys wanted to start with a cover or if you guys have any song ideas already?

I don't have anything. I'd honestly contribute if I knew how to play an instrument, and if I had a microphone to record it with.

Let's do Radiohead's Paranoid Android I guess.

It's a great song and could really test my vocoder skills.

I really like Probehead for a band name. I think we'll go with that. 

Our first EP should be called "Coveniently Obscured Jellyfish" or "They Promised Us Jetpacks", and our first album will be called "Owl Skull Cap" or "Don't Ask" (the latter being my own idea). The rest of the ideas will be titles for song names (or maybe future EPs and albums).

Also, sorry for not being too active today, was a bit held up with other stuff.

there is already a band called we were promised jetpacks which is tbh a bit too similar

I think we should do "smells like teen spirit" as well.

Yeah, that or "Come As You Are". Our first album or so could probably have 65% originals, 35% covers that go over our musical influence.

Also, if we do Nirvana, I might be able to sing it, depending on the song, since my vocal range is in a similar baritenor-ish range. I wouldn't be able to sing much Radiohead, though. Thom Yorke's vocals are way too complex for me.

I thought the name sounded familiar...

Ugh. I can't stand any of that music. I have strange tastes. If you need any of my instruments though, I use sheet music. I can't play by ear to save my life, and I'm definitely not doing tab. It makes my eyes hurt. 
If no one minds, shall I just not involve myself with that stuff and start writing up song ideas?
I'll start making patternmusic bases.
Hey, we could make a patternbase and jam along to it! That would be cool. I'll start making patterns to jam along to.
Anything to save me from radiohead.
