I'm wanting to play a half-orc bard who is based on a metal musician. I kind of want him to be like a Shane Embury type, in that he's been in just about every single extreme metal band in the known world. As part of my backstory, I want a ridiculously long list of D&D related metal band names that my character was in or toured with. So far, I have:
Chultan Death Curse Craven Edge Beholder Troll Blood Tyranny of Tiamat Frost Giant
I'm not particularly familiar with the genre or the naming conventions thereof, but I have a few ideas.
Eye of the Beholder Fireball the Tavern Axesinger Thunderwave Heavy Metal Golem Kill All the Modrons Necromancer's Assistant Awaken the Kraken Burn, Imix, Burn Dread Skeleton

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both" -- allegedly Benjamin Franklin
Honestly though a lot of Death Metal bands names are setting agnostic. I'd look at the wikipedia list for Death Metal Band Names, you can probably grab 50 or so from there without anyone even blinking an eye.
