Best band name ever!

  • I'm sorry, but there's a punk band in the SF Bay Area called Jesus Fucking Christ.
  • Worst FPP Evar.
  • it's a shame they Suck. So. Hard.
  • I think HawthorneWingo wins. But there was, a few years back, a band here in LA named Leather Hymen. Which I think outranks Test Icicles, but I don't know if it tops Jesus Fucking Christ.
  • I once saw Fuck and Nashville Pussy play a double bill at the Crocodile in Seattle.
  • And there's plenty more on the canonical list of weird band names.
  • Add my vote for the "Most obvious self-link evar". Also, doesn't beat the band name "Stupid Fucking Hippie". Not sure who would win in a face off between SFH and JFC.
  • I know a band that's called "Insert Gothy Name Here"
  • Well, hell. I think it's a great name. Not as great as Redneck Girlfriend, but still great.
  • There was a band called the SOFA KINGS. I thought that was pretty cool.
  • my friends had a band called Fallüs...
  • I heard that there is a band in the stage of just being formed that is going by the name Owl Semen.
  • *creates fanfare* hey this band'll be great after they take out the suck.
  • Worst link ever, lame band name, and the "official" web site is a) nothing but flash with no alternative for people who loathe flash, and b) bloody ugly. Them's my opinions. Man, if this was my self-link I'd be embarrassed.
  • OUCH
  • Sweatpant Boners is a better name.
  • Hey, what's that? Oh, it's the grease stain left from LivewireConfusion's pride.
  • Mayhap klausness almost saved it with his link. Amidst the inanity, such gems as: Full Throttle Aristotle Jehovah's Waitresses 9 Invisible Ninjas of the Apocalypse
  • I've always enjoyed the audacity of 'Anal Cunt'
  • I like "Bachman Turner Overweight". Or "Kathleen Turner Overdrive".
  • That was overly snarky, and I apologise.
  • My current fave name is YOU SAY PARTY! WE SAY DIE! Local boys, too.
  • Never apologise.
  • I'll retract my apology if it is a self-link.
  • I always wanted to start a band called "I Don't Know But They Suck". That way when anybody asked you who you were listening to... dot dot dot. geddit?? While we're already on brainwashed.com, might as well tell you to you check out a rather good band whose site they host.
  • Ohhhh I forgot REO Speeddealer.
  • There was a band in my high school called Eat Fuck.
  • What about BONGZILLA it was great name too... Add my vote for the "Most obvious self-link evar". No I am not self linking I have nothing to do with Test Icicles, I was checking my myspace account and saw the ad for them on myspace's front page. I laughed my ass off for about 30 seconds and I thought "the other monkeys might like this as well". The goal was to start a conversation about funny band names, it worked. No need for snark.
  • I think some of the usernames on MoFi would make fantastic band-names, but I'd probably have to ask first, and also be able to form a band that people would want to listen to.
  • My fave is "Kick a dog dead."
  • I always thought Hot Tuna was a great band name. Don't know why, exactly.
  • You'd also have to be able to play music.
  • Not necessarily.
  • Jello Biafra rattles off a bunch of band name suggestions on one of his spoken word albums. It's pretty funny. If you can stand listening to him talk.
  • Robert Anton Wilson fills at least a couple of pages with made up band names in Illuminatus! towards the end; a carnival of musicians marching toward the eschaton, one of which is the 'dead kennedys' - directly influencing Biafra's choice of band name. I believe many other of the names RAW included have subsequently become real bands, including 23 Skidoo, JAMs, and others.
  • I think some of the usernames on MoFi would make fantastic band-names Indeed.
  • My brother for awhile wanted to start a band called Double Beat Loaf and do covers of shitty songs. I laughed.
  • "Ejaculate Scum" once called "Immaculate Sun" until they went punk.
  • Their was a band on Twisted Village (great name for a label) called B.O.R.B. -- Bongloads of Righteous Boo.
  • Hey, I Shall Inform Lord Vader, don't I know you from somewhere? You look familiar.
  • You don't need to see my profile page. I'm not the poster you're looking for. I can go about my business. Move along.
  • There really needs to be a death metal/industrial nose Tori Amos song cover band called Torn Anus. That's a niche begging to be filled.
  • While living in San Francisco some years ago I used to see posters for a band called 'JFKFC'.
  • Another band name list, better than the other in my opinion.
  • Nope, never seen you before in my life. My mistake
  • Haiku Haiku Hai/ku Haiku Haiku Haiku/This Is A Haiku
  • my favorite band name is the band daaaaaang
  • I was in a band a couple of years ago, and we were calling ourselves Hans Blix & the Inspectors. I made it up. *Pats self on back.*
  • For umpteen years running, my favorite band name is still JFKFC.
  • My friend has a band called Kickstand and The Poly Orchids, and I thought that was a really good, original name.
  • my favorite band name is the band Boards on the window Mail by the door What would anybody leave so quickly for? Ophelia Where have you gone? /waits nervously in Nova Scotia for Ophelia
  • May ye be safe, fish tick.
  • t'anks, b'y! She's come and gone with hardly a broken twig, here. Lucky this time.
  • Years ago in one of Musician magazine's band competitions there was a group called Gas Food Lodgings.
  • The Norwegian band "The Cumshots" is shit. Just thought you'd like to know.
  • The band I was in really, really briefly was called Ugly. Just so that I could say that "We're UGLY!" Laff riot. The next band I start I swear will be Daddy's Cumslut. Again, laff riot.
  • I like "Cherry Popping Daddies".
  • MonkeyFilter: That's a niche begging to be filled.
  • There really needs to be a death metal/industrial nose Tori Amos song cover band called Torn Anus. That's a niche begging to be filled. *rimshot* ... *double rimshot*
  • Selfish Cunt are crap also.
