The Band Name Pronunciation Thread

[SIRup]

More like oat-mont with a silent t, I would think (but still say mont like you would with the t...just stop short).

 

[faisay]

I've always wondered about Amon D

 

[IKSA64]

I always pronounced it AW-tek-Re.

 

[0wn3d4life]

Someone tell me how to pronounce: ///▲▲▲\\\

 

[100% anonymous]

This may be an easy one, but I've heard people say Kasabian a few different ways. Ka-say-be-in, kasa-bain... etc. So which is it?

 

[Sammie M]

Yeah that is the pronunciation. I only know this through watching the krautrock doc that was on the BBC a while back (and awesome it was too).

[I <3 EDWARD CULLEN]

I'd say those are all easier to pronounce than your user name.

 

[MathNerd]

Funny.


Lame.

 

[radex]

I pronounce the y-u in "Kyuss" like the y-u in "hyuck"

 

[Pooja P]

Noh, that's how I've always pronounced it and nobody has ever corrected me in conversation.

 

[Evil Kitten]

Ew, 'Sigger Ross' sounRAB like country or a crappy jazz band or something. Just generally unappealing.

 

[The-Cool-Geek]

Anyone have any info on how to pronounce U2?

 

[Libbles1233]

Cheah, chy chould chou cho chat?

 

[Babey♥]

I've always heard it pronounced with the exact opposite emphasis from that though, on the middle syllable: foo-GAH-zee.

 

[yussif]

Yeah, I do Kai-us as well, can anybody clarify?

 

[Lollie]

To say it in true English style it's Ka-say-be-un.

 

[Crazy B]

How about Tom Z

I used not to be able to pronounce Gorky's Zygotic Mynci (the last bit), and I'm still not certain I say it right.

I did say it "Mince-ee", but my papaw was Welsh and told me it was just pronounced like "Monkey".

Still not completely clear on that one.

 

[yacob]

I guess since they're from England I see that "re" on the end as being pronounced the same way as the end of "centre" or "theatre".
