The band with the worst name ever

[BUTT 0]

One day, I was looking through the used CD section at the local record store in my college town, and I found a CD by these guys:

 

 

B-Thong. So I don't think there's any band that has ever had a worse name.

[Paul Stanley 0]

Mustard Plug

[BUTT 0]

No, B-Thong is worse than that.

[Epic Reine 0]

Hoobastank.

Strawberry Alarm Clock.

 

Also, Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right B, A, Start is so bad it's good.

That's actually the middle name of one of the members. Scary, eh?

[Red Baron 0]

Butthole Surfers

Rainbow BUTT Monkeys

Temple of the Dog

[UZI Suicide 0]

Fall Out Boy

[Nighthawk 0]

Butthole Surfers were originally The Unalienable Right to Eat Fred Astaire's Asshole. Good or bad, that name trumps their current one.

[UZI Suicide 0]

also -

Taking Back Sunday

Death Cab for Cutie

 

uhh...pretty much any EMO band.

[Red Baron 0]

Dashboard Confessional

AFI

Demons and Wizards (I know its an Iced Earth/Blind Guardian side-project but did Dio come up with that name?)

Anal Cunt

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

Uncle Kracker

Korn

Prince's symbol thing

[Matt Young 0]

I like the names Fall Out Boy, Taking Back Sunday, Death Cab For Cutie, and AFI (A Fire Inside). Then again, I like the bands, too.

[PLAGIARISM! 0]

Remove the Butthole Surfers from this list. I believe they were also the Ashtray Baby Heads at one point, another good one.

 

Velvet Revolver

Hot Tuna

The Postal Service

My Chemical Romance

Electronic

Fightstar

Robert Plant and The Strange Sensation

Johnny Marr and the Healers

All American Rejects

Mudvayne

Basically, most things with three stupid words, or misspelled/combined words.

[Red Baron 0]

Limp Bizkit

HIM

[TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe 0]

I like the names Fall Out Boy, Taking Back Sunday, Death Cab For Cutie, and  AFI (A Fire Inside).  Then again, I like the bands, too.

Seconded

 

Also, Fall Out Boy is a nod to Radioactive Man's sidekick.

Last year there was a band called Screaming Wolf Penis that entered a competition to determine the shittiest band in Seattle. I've yet to hear anything as bad as that in terms of band names.

[King Kamala 0]

Fall Out Boy isn't named after Radioactive Man's sidekick, I saw one of the members on Fuse talking about how they got the band name when someone in the crowd shouted "Fall out boy". Not being named after the Simpsons character makes their name 10x automatically worse.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

Some of the names in this thread are actually good.

 

As for not good, there's a band called Say Hi to Your Mom.

[Gary Floyd 0]

Butthole Surfers were originally The Unalienable Right to Eat Fred Astaire's Asshole. Good or bad, that name trumps their current one.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You forgot their other would be names were The Ashtray Babyheads and The Revenge of Anus Presley.

[Nighthawk 0]

I never liked the band name format of (Person's Name) Band; ie, Steve Miller, Dave Matthews.

[Only The Strong Survive 0]

Stereomud or Crossfade.

 

Come to think of it, Metallica is a shitty name too.

[razazteca 0]

Goldie Lookin Chain

Smile Empty Soul

 

I win.

[Guest Derek Bailey]

A Thorn for Every Heart.

Hearts that Hate.

 

Emo names are great.

 

Child Pornography. Try finding them on Google.

I never figured out whether I liked that the name Ben Folds Five was misleading. Of course, the official reason for that name is that "it sounded better than the Ben Folds Three".

[Guest undisputedjericho]

Anal Cunt sounds pretty fucking awful.
