What makes a great metal band name?

Metal band names are dark, heavy, and epic — built from grim, powerful words (Bloodreign, Iron Throne, Cursed Serpent, Eternal Abyss). Subgenres set the tone: death metal leans visceral, black metal cold and occult, power metal grand and mythic. The best names look brutal on an album cover and sound massive shouted over a wall of guitars.
