I always thought that one was was pretty funny. Like Hookers and Blow.

Uriah Heep, Mud. Who would call their band - the vessel which to channel stardust from the collective Akashic subconcious - Mud? Dirty bastards. Gypsies, no doubt. Freeze that self-righteous liberal brainfart, I'm quarter tinker m'self.

We Are an Insecure Bunch of Guys And We Wanted A Big Scary Band Name That Would Show We Weren't Just Here To Fuck Around

NDRU said:

Is that your new band?

minneapolisgenius said:

No, but my band Suspicious Package could be on that list!

Number23 said:

Uriah Heep is named after a character in the Dickens book David Copperfield.

NDRU said:

it could be. But you know, when I first read Suspicious Package, I thought immediately of a different kind of package.

Gotta be The Testicicles. They were shit too, I'm glad they split last year.

added!

The Killers. Something about that name that just sounds so evil.

minneapolisgenius said:

That's what's funny, we were playing at a nudist club when the guitar player came up with that name.

I'm still not sure what he was thinking; tongue in cheek or serious political statement. I'd like to think tongue in cheek.

Add "New Power Generation" to that list.

PreacherMan said:

Now why didn't I think of that?

DEFINATELY ADDED!

PreacherMan said:

I know, and the Revolution is such a great band name, too.

NDRU said:

I know.

Where did it all go wrong?

Have to say, but 'Atomic Duvet' was a friend's band. They were called 'Mr Jackson', and were doing alright for themselves locally, then they changed their name to....that....that 'thing'. I thought they were joking at first.

Unfortunately they weren't, and they were to be relegated for all eternity to languish on a long list of shitty band names on a Prince website.

I just saw one of their videos last night on MTV. It was about children fighting soldiers in a desert and the children were firing laser beams from their fingers at the soldiers. Then the soldiers' corpses turned into brighly-costumed babes and they started go-go dancing.

Here's the video: Naked Sun

I like the name Uriah Heep.

Was Hootie and The Blowfish mentioned and I missed it? Is that one too obvious?

And add AIDS Wolf even though I have one of their albums.

One of my buddies is in a punk band called The Lubricunts.

Classy fuckers, ain't they?

Ambrosia

JFKFC and Jehovah's Witness Protection Program

my 2 all time faves

The Burning Sensations is not there!

'Accidental Goat Sodomy'

That's right up your alley, isn't it?

minneapolisgenius said:

Before I forget it, I thought the BEST f*cking name I've ever heard for a band was Amish Rake Fight.

Who's with me?

Anyone?

....hello?

BananaCologne said:

That IS pretty great.

minneapolisgenius said:

How about 36 Crazy Fists? That one might be just dumb as opposed to truly bad.

I just realized I'm going to see them in two weeks.
