Matchbox 20
Blink 182
Semisonic
Guster
Dave Matthews Band
Linkin Park
Marcy's Playground
Sum 41

What could be worse than Chuck D's band Confrontation Camp? Especially considering that Griff is/was a member.

Came across this one last night: Observers Observing Observables.

I Mother Earth

^^^infintesimally better than the comparable Our Lady Peace

There's a band whose record I like who have for some reason (something to do with The Royal Tenenbaums) call themselves "Margot & the Nuclear So-and-Sos."

Around town here there is a coffee shop boy/girl folk duo called....*drum roll*....

"PATCHOULI"

!!!!

seriously!?!?!

Vampire Weekend

Don't know if that's some kind of reference, don't care. That name just completely eats shit.

Fuck buttons

THEIVERY CORPORATION
MORCHEEBA
hoobastank

Now imagine the festival name all three would headline.

Bands Who(m) I Have Never Heard Note One Of, But The Name Tells Me All I Need To Know
who has the worst name out of all the 'The ....' bands?

My Chemical Romance

Mid-90's industrial rock triple-feature: Dink, Machines of Loving Grace, Stabbing Westward

Fuck buttons

Seconded (for reasons I set forth on another thread).

Does it Offend You, Yeah?

Get the fuck out of my face, annoying band.

Chumbawumba
Bananarama
Scritti Politti

You get the idea.

God Lives Underwater

Jet

In the 80s you had this very long band names thing. Surely, it was different and cool in a way, but in retrospect, most of those names suck as actual band names.

For instance, Frankie Goes To Hollywod, Pop Will Eat Itself, We've Got a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It etc.

TV

oooooooon

the

RADIO!!!!!!!!!

;p

superchunk
arctic monkeys

Vampire Weekend (totally misleading)

Apocalyptica (how original...)

!!! (any name that you can't even pronounce without specific instructions is bound to suck)

Hercules and the Love Affair (what the hell does this even mean? the music is quite nice, but the name mislead me to think it's one of those stupid indie bands)

...And You Will Know Us by the Pretentious and Overlong Name of Our Band

Broadfield Marchers

Any band that auditions for The X-Factor is guaranteed to have a bowel clenchingly bad name. Some choice picks:

2 to Go
Voices With Soul
4 Tune
Addictiv Ladies
4Sure
Same Difference
Bad Lashes

I've always thought that Technical Difficulties, Plus Support, and Gig Cancelled are all very bad band names.

Addictiv Ladies

why is this making me lol so hard

Smell & Quim

A somewhat talented band in the wake of Goldfrapp, Product 01, will probably be condemned to obscurity due to the most forgettable band name ever. It's not even embarassingly misguided.

Pig Destroyer is an awesome name.

taking in mind "Pig" = "Cop" here.

Field Music, and the two side-projects of it's members: School of Language and The Week That Was.

Came across two crackers recently

Hockey

The Answering Machine

There used to be site on the dusty old internet with what seemed like thousands of names in a plain text document. Of course I never bookmarked it or saved it, and google searches for bad band names just fill up with dull blog entries. Don't suppose anyone...?

Hockey, the band. Great.

Yeah the band had to sit and agree that too. Lord knows what the other ones were on the shortlist. Lacrosse? And don't mention Darts, first album I ever bought...

You have GOT to be fucking shitting me:

I've never been sure if this is a good or bad band name:
