The Band

The original band who sang this song is All Time Low, the band themselves portray quite a dark rebellious look emphasised by the mise-en-scene of photo shoots (for example graffiti)
 

 
 
however even the band in their music video for "Somewhere in Neverland" played a more lighthearted role and had very colourful settings, props, lighting and even clothing. This image didn't really suit the existing portrayal of band, however did set a turn in their career creating a "softer" image, steering away from the punk/grunge rock, to a softer alternative pop rock.


I wanted to create a new band name which would portray this softer rock tone, I have come up with a few band and album names and intend to ask my target audience which of these they prefer for the band.

Possible band names

Intra Axis             (7 votes)
Aftershock           (5 votes)
Backlash              (4 votes)
Line of fire          (4 votes)

Album names:

For the album name I liked the idea of linking to the focus song (Somewhere in Neverland), and reflecting these "dreamworld/imaginary" themes:

Delusion               (8 votes)
Trance                  (6 votes)
Illusion                 (2 votes)
Deception             (3 votes)
Abstraction           (1 votes)

I asked 20 members who fit into my target audience profile, the results where pretty spread and they agreed that most of the names were good and fit the band. However from this the chosen names are:

Band name: Intra Axis
Album name: Delusion
