Which band name do you like most?

Link · 02-07-2006, 01:09 PM

Just a simple question, really. It's not about the music the band makes, but just their name. I, for one, think the name "Del Da Funky Homosapien" is just plain brilliance

If it were music, I gotta say Arctic Monkeys have it.

In fact, that's a damn cool name too. Arctic Monkeys FTW

Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction

And to think bands from Seattle thought they had invented grunge rock with killer riffs ppffffttt! the Tattooed Beat Messiah was (with many others) there many years before

A (dis)honourable mention should go to "gay bikers on acid"

Machine Gun Fellatio always put a smile on my face.

Jewish Joe and the Nazis...they didn't get too far for some reason

Props to fictional band Hedwig and the Angry Inch

I just love the randomness of 'Rage Against the Machine'

A few more that did it for me:

The Beasts of Bourbon
Mr Meaner
This Is Serious Mum
Pop Will Eat Itself
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Once you start thinking of it, they usually make no sense at all. What to think of Limp Bizkit ( [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] ) and Sum41.

I like your style

What's a Seether? I don't think I'd have gone for that one myself. But I guess angst sells.
Is this a descriptive name: Rainbow.
Self Explanatory?: Black Sabbath
Can't decide if they want to love her, or kill her: Guns and Roses?
Note: They used to love her, but then had to kill her...
Most likely name I'd have never come up with: AC/DC
Strangest name origin: Led Zepplin; they were told that their music would go over like a lead balloon...
I had a lot more, but they escape me right now.
