Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
Creedence Clearwater Revival is a just plain DUMB name. Great band, bad name.
Also -- must put in a second or third vote for that Hoobastank band. Even without hearing a note of their music, I know exactly what they sound like.
Other terrors (and I'm not speaking about the music here):
Creed
Hootie and the Blowfish.
Toad the wet sprocket.
Korn.
Radiohead.
The Police.
Electric Frankenstein (?? I mean, seriously?)
Gearhead.
Nickelback.
Adema.
Dixie Chicks.
Dead Prez
Satanicide
Deicide
Buster Poindexter -- sorry, I know it's not a band but who would CHOOSE that name for oneself??

Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
I always wanted to see a triple-bill of...
...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead
Godspeed! You Black Emperor
Behold! The Living Corpse
Not only are they all sentences (or at least fragments,) they all have thoroughly unnecessary punctuation.
My band's called Rachael's Surrender, which probably isn't very good either, and has punctuation.
Cheerio,
Literati,
occasionally known as Michael

Dixie Chicks is brilliant, because it allows the spinoff Dixie Chicks with Dicks
...and you will know us by the trail of tight pants
A couple friends and I resolved to calling ourselves the Fucking Fucking Champs, or maybe the Fucking Throwing Muses. Then we realized that FOGHAT pronounced 'faggot' was far superior.
Uh, does this have anything to do with recording?

Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
There is, or was a band from here in Cincinnati called Uncle Daddy and the Family Secret. I kind of like that one, so I guess it doesn't fit in the thread.
I've always thought that a terrible band name would be Pollen Count.

I think Three Word Bandname would be a good goofy fake-alterative-pop name

The dumbest band name I ever heard was Agoraphobic Nosebleed. Then I heard the band. Now I think it's the most appropriate band name ever.
Heurh!

Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
I thought Radiohead was a pretty crap name for ages then I started to remember those stories about people picking up stations on their mercury amalgam. Which made it more interesting. Then I also had this friend who went 'section 8' and literally got all these voices in his head - loads of them. So again I thought the name got better.

Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
There is a Taking Head's song called "Radio Head," which Radiohead took their moniker from, as an homage to one of their favorite bands. The song is terrible though!
Their original name was "On a Friday"
How can such a brilliant band pick such shit names?

Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
Oh, thank you! A friend and i are taliking about making "The Ultimate Rock Song For The New Millenium" where the lyrics are just a description of what's going on in the song. IE:Brian Brock wrote:I think Three Word Bandname would be a good goofy fake-alterative-pop name
Sung: "This is the first verse of the song where I talk about how I feel empty inside, and I allude to the fact that you broke up with me, yeah."
Telephone voice: "Ooohhh, and then I use a telephone voice to insinuate that I am having crazy thoughts inside my head. And then comes the..."
(Eight Overdubbed crowd) "ANGRY CHORUS! ANGRY CHORUS! SCREAMINGANGRYCHORUS! ANGRYCHORUS-ANGRYCHORUS!" repeat.
Audio Engineer Euphemism for going number two: "Rollin' off the Low End."
Re: STUPIDEST BAND NAME YOU'VE EVER HEARD?
Make that song, Roboburger! I'll buy you a pizza if you do.
