Gary Floyd Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 Hoobastank. Really, it sounds like a drunken frat prank, only really lame.
vivalaultra Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Fall-Out Boy...if only because it's not a Simpson's reference Chumbawamba. Yeah...
Guest NYankees Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Sum 41. I used to joke with friends that they got this name because all 4 members ranked their looks on a scale of 1-100 and they combined it. That is how they got the Sum 41.
Star Ocean 3 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Chatmonchy Ketchup Mania Sons of all Pussys sloth love chunks
Toshiaki Koala Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Posted August 30, 2006 Some of those are bad, but my pick is still the winner as far as sheer jaw-dropping inanity goes. And Ketchup Mania is great name.
Corey_Lazarus Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 The Wesux (band I was in my sophomore year) Tree (not only does the name suck, the band does too) Rascal Flatts Angels & Airwaves Europe Asia Boston Waltham Chicago (naming your band after the area you're from is LAME) Nullset (especially when their original name, Gangsta Bitch Barbie, was much better) Hatebreed (really...is it a backhand nod to white power, or a terrible tribute to The Misfits?) And all of those band names that are just phrases. Yes, my beloved Shadows Fall is one of them.

Masked Man of Mystery Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I was fixing up the CDs in my store and I saw a band called The The....I'm not kidding.
The Amazing Rando Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I never liked "System of a Down", "Buckcherry", or "10,000 Maniacs"
spman Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Frankie Goes to Hollywood wtf was Holly Johnson smoking when he came up with that.
spiny norman Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I was fixing up the CDs in my store and I saw a band called The The....I'm not kidding. No way! What will those crazy kids come up with next?

Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Cute is What We Aim For.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Well, that just outsucks any of the ones I posted. Fuck. But I'll keep going: This Song is a Mess but So Am I I Love You but I've Chosen Darkness
Guest Felonies! Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I was fixing up the CDs in my store and I saw a band called The The....I'm not kidding. Johnny Marr was in The The. Chicago is not a band bad name. Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark Gnarls Barkley Yeah Yeah Yeahs The Promise Ring Say Anything Fall Out Boy The Academy Is...
Dr. Zoidberg Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Default - Their name describes them perfectly. All-American Rejects Part Chimp - good band, bad name
Guest Felonies! Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 They're not worthy of referencing the Smiths. You too, Fall Out Boy, with your hysterically long song titles.
Man Who Sold The World Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 And let's throw in an honorable mention to Flyleaf for ruining a perfectly good launch.com playlist on my hard rock station. Fags.
Star Ocean 3 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Chicago is a band good name. There are more bad ones like Thee Michelle Gun Elephant and GO!GO!7188, but that's crossing into dangerous esoteric territory.

There are more bad ones like Thee Michelle Gun Elephant and GO!GO!7188, but that's crossing into dangerous esoteric territory. Indeed, JPop produces odd band names, but I think it best we stay out of that territory.

Chicago is not a band bad name. Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark Gnarls Barkley Yeah Yeah Yeahs The Promise Ring Say Anything Fall Out Boy The Academy Is... I used to be a pretty big fan of The The back in the day ... and by back in the day, I mean mid/late 80s. And I have no issues with Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark ... just because everyone always called them OMD. As long as the band name can be abbreviated to three letters and sound good, I don't really care what the actual words are. e.g. Grivevous Bodily Harm is a bad band-name, but GBH is a good band name.
vivalaultra Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I like the name I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness. For bad band names, I'd like to include these: Oingo Boingo Kajagoogoo A-Ha Rainbow BUTT Monkeys
Hogan Made Wrestling Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 Dragonforce I mean seriously, I know power metal isn't the bastion of originality in music, but they couldn't think of anything more creative than that?
razazteca Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 I was fixing up the CDs in my store and I saw a band called The The....I'm not kidding. No way! What will those crazy kids come up with next? The Band Da Band The Who The Guess Who Mister Mister ...And you will know us by the trail of the dead The Eagles of Death Metal
