Called that apparently so that their records will be easy to find it music shops.
Seems like a neat idea, but talking about the band to other people must be a nightmare.
"Erm... A what?"
Their actual name then has to be 'The band A'
Death Cab For Cutie
Margot & the Nuclear So and So's
Cherry Ghost
and another band I know of called Someone Still Loves You, Boris Yeltsin.
I think Death Cab for Cutie is from a song of the same name from the 60s by Bonzo Dog Doo-Da Band - it appeared in the Beatles Magical Mystery Tour ha
Worst name I can think of is 'Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly' which Simon Amstell deservedly took the piss out of on Never Mind the Buzzcocks a few years ago

Fail.
Toad The Wet Sprocket!

This one ^
Just saying it makes me titter.
maybe unfortunate rather than stupid sounding
I love that name, they have played on that a few times. 'Absolute Garbage' was a pretty good name for a greatest hits
Harry actually came up with the name.
And a lot of the fangirls actually love the term 'Wand Erection' believe it or not!
I've always wondered why Dozy and Beaky were called that

I don't think I know any of these :eek:
Not sure they're on a par with Pink Floyd, but they are a great band, and it's an absolute disgrace they're not allowed on Jools Holland.
Probably because, like me, most people have never heard of them!
Hardly a constructive post. Would be better if you'd listed said bands instead of a lazy general swipe at modern music.
It must be hard to come up with a "normal" sounding name these days that hasn't already been used/trademarked at some point.
"most bands now"; such as....??
You've got Foetus on your Breath
Sigue Sigue Sputnik
Bananarama
Bow Wow Wow
Belouis Some
Or KoЯn.
There's nothing I can do about the musical knowledge, or lack of, of others....

That name makes me cringe, but I did like their music. I really wish they had got to release their album
Seriously? I didn't know that.
