Spotted punk band The C**ts in a festival flyer last year. Probably not the best name if you want to make it in the music business (which they probably don't).

Most of these are pretty inventive I think.
Ou Est Le Swimming Pool had a great song with 'Dance the Way I Feel'. Shame their lead singer committed suicide. |

I just think of Control-Alt-Delete The worst band names for me are the completely uninspired, mundane ones like "The Music" or "Girls". |

I remember reading something about a band called "Free Hot Lunch"... a bunch of senior citizens were misled by the marquee.

If we can open it up to individuals then I will go for rappers. Pick one at random.

Decent band but awful name. Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine also, especially if you've ever seen photos of them. *shudders* |

I actually like most of the names mentioned so far on the thread. Yes, some of them may be a little daft but they do show great imagination.
The ones I don't particularly like tend to be unimaginative (imo) single word seventies band names, such as:- Bread Dawn Kenny Mud Pilot Queen Sailor Slade Slik Smokie Sweet |

People think QUEEN was a bad band name?
Seriously, check yourselves. |

One Erection is quite a bad name too. I wonder who came up with it (Simon).
On the subject of some more bad band names: Mumford & Sons takes the cake. Also it must have taken some creative prowess to come up with Girls Aloud. On the whole I think bands actually make up really good names. Some of them can be a bit odd like Mamas and Papas, Lawson and Take That but they're not really bad (in fact they work) but they're just a bit odd. |
