I have avoided Edguy because of the name, same with Pinkcream 69, they could be brillant but those are terrible names, of course the Goo Goo Dolls is a stupid name and they became this huge singles act.

I think you'd enjoy PC69 Manny. Intelligent lyrics, great vocals, outstanding musicianship.

Heard a couple samples on their website, very cool, not what I was expecting, I thought it would have 60's vibe, I guess because of the name of the band. Very cool, thanks for the link Toho.

🤘

And if you like Helloween, check out older PC69. Andy Deris used to be the singer and the older stuff is more metal-oriented.

Death Cab for Cutie. WTF?

I assume they got the name from The Beatles movie Magical Mystery Tour. There is a scene in which a house band is playing a song with the lyrics "Death Cab for Cutie". That's GOTTA be where they got the name.

How about A Life Threatening Buttocks Condition? That's a pretty bad band name.

I always thought they got the name from a Bonzo Dog Band, the album was titled " Gorilla" and one of the songs is titled " Death Cab for Cutie", as a matter a fact I think the house band is Bonzo Dog Band but I have not seen the movie in several years so I am not sure.

I actually like the name Death Cab For Cutie.

Sounds like a title from my DVD collection.

that's a bad name, but we're not looking for commercial success, so it doesn't really matter.

What is an "Axe destoyer"? That's 2 random words combined in a nonsensical fashion. I'm positive there is already a band named "Destroyer". http://www.myspace.com/destroyer

"Yellow death machine" makes sense. If I had a machine that caused death, I would paint it yellow.

Coincidentally, there's a Yahoo music blog on this very subject today.

Toad The Wet Sprocket gets mentioned and in the user comments there's this:

VA's own "Dick Buttkiss And The Tightends".

A year ago me and my friend had a 2 man project called Final Slap (sounds very similar to that movie title, wonder why...). It was kind of a thrash / death metal band with very silly lyrics. One song I wrote was called "I Shot the Crüe Leader" (after that Bob Marley tune...) and was about the murder of Vince Neil, commited by me in the song of course, hehe. It was great fun and the only bad thing about that band was the name...

Some other silly band names:
Råg i Ryggen (Swedish 70's heavy metal / progressive rock band. Swedish for Seed in the Back, which means that you have "guts" to do something, very silly words for it indeed)
Lääz Rockit
Krokus
Rotting Christ
Enuff Z'nuff
Eagles of Death Metal
I Killed the Prom Queen (and all those mallcore bands with 100 words-names)
Swedish Erotica
REO Speedwagon
Anvil B*tch
Rymdimperiet (Swedish 80's rock band. The Swedish translation for "Star Wars"' The Galactic Empire. After realesing their first LP, they changed their name to just Imperiet, The Empire)

I always thought Vicious Rumors was a very poor choice of a band name. It sounds like some LA glam band, but obviously VR are not that. I wonder how many people ignored them assuming they were some wimpy glam rock band?

Two band names I swear I am not making up:

"Barney Rubble and the C*nt Stubble"
"Buster Hymen and the Cherries"

... I think I win. Laughing

Cat Power-I was trolling through the music station at Books-A-Million (I had a gift card), I heard some teenage girsls mention that name and thought of how stupid a name that was.
