Trying to think of any reasonably well known band names with more than 4 letters, where all the letters are in alphabetical order, for example if there were a band called ABORT... (actually there probably is some sort of HC or death metal band called that, now I think of it)... but anyway you get the ideaHave at it!
Bascially it bugs me that for the life of me I can't think of a single one...HELP!

There is a band called ABCDE - their name is, at least, well known ;-)Originally Posted by PeterG
Art (pre Spooky Tooth), Egg, Ace (the Paul Carrack Seventies band) and, cheating a little, ELP.
What's HC? Heavy Country?
We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
It won't be visible through the air
And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973
Can't think of any longer ones yet, but another three - ACT.
You say Mega Ultra Deluxe Special Limited Edition Extended Autographed 5-LP, 3-CD, 4-DVD, 2-BlueRay, 4-Cassette, five 8-Track, MP4 Download plus Demos, Outtakes, Booklet, T-Shirt and Guitar Pick Gold-Leafed Box Set Version like it's a bad thing...
Look out! You're gonna get the smackdown from Peter - he clearly said more than 4 letters.

(The) Chills, from New Zealand. Six letters, if you allow discounting the "the".

Ok, doesn't meet the "reasonably well known" criterion, but... seven letters in alphabetical order.
Most likely hardcore.
You missed the bit about more than 4 letters then?Which I wrote for good reason
hardcore = punk + metal
Told ya!

(The) Doors? Or does having a double-o (or definite article) render it invalid?
Doesn't matter! I like it! Thanks. My next Q of course is this: are they any good?
Point of order, if there is a "The" in the name, then there IS a The in the name and it is invalid in my book.
There was an 'electronic' band on Ministry of Sound called Bent - unfortunately, its not my cup o' tea, so i can't say if they're any good or not.
BENT!
aaaggghhh....band names with more than 4 letters
Ghost
Accept

It's a bit of a comfort knowing that there are still some things in life that you can accurately predict, eh, Scott?!

Excellent, and two bands that I know of, that I like and that I have seen live! So, why the bleedin' 'ell, didn't I think of them!
Bijou was(is) a prog band from Spain that issued one album in the mid 2000's.

Actually I had never heard of Ghost, but I took a punt that there would be a band of that name, and confirmed it by searching. It seemed an obvious name for a band.
Pretty well-known: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belly_(band)
Not so much: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegis_(band)
not valid!!!
Hendrix, Emerson, Lake, Palmer....
