jmh886: Terrible Band Names

Relinquished 08.25.16	it's good to have a marketable name but other than that it really doesn't matter. plus this list has so many stretches to fill entries it goes out of its own way to be bad. survey says... delete this list.
Conmaniac 08.25.16	woah woah woah 30 and 22 are excellent band names lmao. some of these I don't mind either
demigod! 08.25.16	agree with all the scenecore bands it seems like you hate any even slightly unorthodox band names in general tbh
FullOfSounds 08.25.16	30 is awesome.
Parallels 08.25.16	7? 7!
jmh886 08.25.16	i'll agree 30 and 22 are not so terrible. perhaps i should have reduced the number. like i said not too much thought was put into the order. and if its good to have a marketable name, then it does matter. but this was for fun, dont take it too seriously guys.
ashcrash9 08.25.16	regarding 41, they used to be Harvard spelled correctly but apparently the institution was like "hey, stop that" so they just removed the vowels or something
jmh886 08.25.16	well that is better than just removing the vowels to be different i suppose
AsleepInTheBack 08.25.16	List is magnificent
jmh886 08.25.16	^yes thank you! one positive feedback makes it all worthwhile
combustion07 08.25.16	Nocturnal Vomit- awesome death metal with a name that turns people away
Tyler. 08.25.16	Bad list
Typhoon24 08.25.16	indeed. lots of shite names here
Artuma 08.25.16	44 (both band name and music) is amazing fuck off and suffocate for fuck's sake
Artuma 08.26.16	and the punctuation works well in 24
FullOfSounds 08.26.16	Let's eat Grandma vs. Let's eat, Grandma
jmh886 08.26.16	this list has nothing to do with how i feel about the band's music. calm down buddy. sorry you disagree with two bands on here. go drink a beer.
jmh886 08.26.16	captain, we're sinking is probably not so terrible i agree. but just doesnt flow well.
Artuma 08.26.16	i actually almost mentioned sffs in your 'favorite band names' thread lol but honestly a lot of these band names are better than soundgarden beer is good though, agree on that
ReminiscentOfAWhale 08.26.16	What did all those burning corpses smell like, you fucking grammar nazi?
TheSpaceMan 08.26.16	Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate) will never be topped as the worst name possible
Trundle 08.26.16	39, 31.......so bad
ArsMoriendi 08.26.16	The Number Twelve Looks Like You are named after a Twilight Zone Episode Their name is still kind of terrible though
ReminiscentOfAWhale 08.26.16	I bet you file your own taxes and manage your investments on your own, you fucking grammar nazi.
ReminiscentOfAWhale 08.26.16	You probably floss every time you brush your teeth, you fucking grammar nazi.
TheSpaceMan 08.26.16	" bet you file your own taxes and manage your investments on your own" i bet youre in high school
jmh886 08.26.16	punctuation is bad. reminiscent of a whale...now there's a good name.
jmh886 08.26.16	do people really actually like the names with the stupid punctuation in them?? can't believe i am offending people.
frigyourgenre 08.26.16	Bbng iz lif dough
ReminiscentOfAWhale 08.26.16	No college, idk what money is
ReminiscentOfAWhale 08.26.16	You fucking grammar nazi
ArsMoriendi 08.26.16	Ampersands, apostrophes, and some periods (like the case o Dr./Mr./Jr.) are okay, but most punctuation in band names are kind of unnecessary.
Lavair 08.26.16	Crywank
TheSpaceMan 08.26.16	forgive me but... why the fuck did this get a feature?
oltnabrick 08.26.16	is joe flacco elite?
TheSonomaDude 08.26.16	Great list, tho I like 13
iloveyouall 08.26.16	no, my name is jeffery
AlexKzillion 08.26.16	"is joe flacco elite?" Coming from a Steelers fan, he's a lot better then people give him credit for.
hikingmetalpunk 08.26.16	carach angren
GeorgeWBush 08.26.16	I love this list and everything it stands for. Although I do think that Giraffes? Giraffes! is an excellent name. May I suggest PVRIS?
GeorgeWBush 08.26.16	I mean, CHVRCHES sort of makes sense. Not saying that it's a good name. It's terrible. But the Romans used V's instead of U's. But PVRIS replaced a fucken A with a V.
GeorgeWBush 08.26.16	Shit name AND the wrong vowel.
demigod! 08.26.16	i do really hate the name Into It. Over It. though
ThyCrossAwaits 08.26.16	the fact that someone had to add "(US)" to Attack Attack! because there's also an Attack Attack and an Attack! Attack! makes me want to cry
Ebola 08.26.16	I laughed at 34
Thibs 08.26.16	i have no problem with biffy and dredg. tony danza is the worst here
Sevengill 08.26.16	I laughed. CunninLynguists too.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	list needs Chumbawamba
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	otherwise i agree with most of these but not all
Sevengill 08.26.16	Charred Walls of the Damned is pretty cringey too.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	also CunninLynguists is objectively a fucking fantastic name for a hip hop group if it were for any other genre though the effect wouldnt be the same but sevengill listens to solely entry level metal so i can understand why she hates it
miketunneyiscool123 08.26.16	anal cunt is the best band name ever
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	like seriously that double entendre is like the absolute most topical thing of all time for hip hop. its self explanatory.
jtswope 08.26.16	It elicits a chuckle, but on closer examination is objectively dope.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	yep
ConcubinaryCode 08.26.16	Terrible usernames: jmh866
Archelirion 08.26.16	Love Sex Machine?
SitarHero 08.26.16	I think "Dance Gavin Dance" and "The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza" are so bad that they loop around and come back to being good again.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	they dont they are just bad
SitarHero 08.26.16	Naah.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	yeah sorry you can rationalize thinking they are good all you want they are still two of the worst names of all time ever
Sevengill 08.26.16	"but sevengill listens to solely entry level metal so i can understand why she hates it" I don't like it because it's a worn-out joke that hasn't been funny since before Deep Purple used it in 1984's Knocking At Your Back Door.
SitarHero 08.26.16	What's a bad band name? What are the criteria that make it "bad"?
ZippaThaRippa 08.26.16	For me it's almost worse when a band has a good name but makes shit music. I'm like 'oh hell yeah, that sounds fierce lemme check it. Oh. It's proggy poop metal.'
DirEnRefused 08.26.16	amazing list. only one i don't dislike as a name is badbadnotgood
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	"I don't like it because it's a worn-out joke that hasn't been funny since before Deep Purple used it in 1984's Knocking At Your Back Door." you are legit the crabbiest person on the entire planet
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.26.16	id say you'd be fun at parties but you probably get way too much social anxiety to have ever gone to one
Trundle 08.26.16	relax pots, cunninlynguists is entry level hip-hop
Trundle 08.26.16	car seat headrest is also an awful name
Trailmix 08.26.16	39 and 20 shouldn't be on here lol
CaliggyJack 08.26.16	LOL The fact you hate CHVRCHES proves you have no sense of historical context. "U"s used to be spelled with a "V" until it was given a curve later on. They are simply using it's old form. Other than that 0/10 for using the word "gross" in the dumbest way possible.
iloveyouall 08.26.16	v is more aesthetically pleasing than u tbh
Keyblade 08.26.16	cunninlynguists is a a1 name what are u saying op
iloveyouall 08.26.16	chvrches in all lowercase looks fucking sick tho.
CaliggyJack 08.26.16	It looks fucking stupid when it is typed in this text sure. They put in fine on their album covers for stylistic purposes.
Deathconscious 08.26.16	Captain, We're Sinking and Neutral Milk Hotel are both great names for them.
CaliggyJack 08.26.16	The only thing I find ridiculous is the all cps. It's just a curve and it looks fine other than caps.
doomjitsu 08.26.16	what about lost salt blood purges
doomjitsu 08.26.16	holy shit man for the first time ever i got the name right
iloveyouall 08.26.16	hot slut fuck urges
chaywa 08.26.16	RAGC (19) makes perfect sense in the context of the trilogy of records, not sure it warrants the negative connotations.
Wombat988 08.26.16	7 is the greatest band name of all time.
AsleepInTheBack 08.26.16	I still think 40 is a great band name just because it's so ridiculous
jmh886 08.26.16	historical context? who cares? it's bad either way. and is someone really hating on a username?
jmh886 08.26.16	and lists get features?
Risodo 08.26.16	awesome list
ZippaThaRippa 08.26.16	Chvrches is a fucking shit name. Which is fitting considering the material.
hobblepot 08.26.16	Dance Gavin Dance have the greatest band name of all time. Also list blows, half the complaints are threadbare at best.
Sevengill 08.27.16	"id say you'd be fun at parties but you probably get way too much social anxiety to have ever gone to one" it's mostly the rampant booze that turns me off
ZippaThaRippa 08.27.16	Go to better parties
ZippaThaRippa 08.27.16	The ones with DRUGS. Or like, the ones with friends. And talking.
BallsDeep 08.27.16	This could be comprised solely of pornogrind bands
owen 08.28.16	The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die still has more members than words
oldsoul 08.29.16	@DefendCrabCore - living up to your username there @ZippaThaRippa - DRUGS was a pretty bad band name too
CrimsonLies 08.30.16	Um 44 is amazing
WatchItExplode 08.31.16	Way to make a list that isn't one of 40k variations on the same few themes. I enjoyed it!
Kompys2000 08.31.16	1 is 1. This list is the truth.
Sevengill 08.31.16	The Receiving End of Sirens is the worst band name ISIS is the most unfortunate
Kompys2000 08.31.16	ISIS is pretty damn unfortunate... I still think Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! is worse than The Receiving End of Sirens, though. It's got 2 exclamation points, and they aren't even consecutive. It just doesn't get any worse.
Keyblade 09.01.16	if isis is unfortunate, imagine the thousands of girls who are also named after the greek goddess
Sevengill 09.01.16	NPR did a special on businesses with the acronym ISIS. Most of them switched the letters around but some stuck it out, which generally seemed to elicit positive reaction from customers. Because fuck those terrorists ain't changing us.
OwMySnauze 09.01.16	So glad Sky Eats Airplane didn't make this list. They're just awesome, name and tunes.
YetAnotherBrick 09.01.16	damn this shit had me cracking up. well done. 31 tho lmao
majordevlin 09.02.16	!!! that band name yeah...
riffariffic7 09.03.16	Here's a few bad band names I thought of: (hed) p.e., Here We Go Magic, Kajagoogoo, OneRepublic, Stereomud, The The (love this band, but this name was a bad choice, although I do kinda like it at the same time for how nonchalant it is, and it rolls off the tongue well too), Toots and the Maytals (another band I love, but saying "toots" usually doesn't sit well with me), T'Pau, Wang Chung, The Weeknd, 1208.
americanohno 09.03.16	The Pains of Being Pure of Heart is a great band name imo boring music tho. Sad!
minty901 09.03.16	Stubborn Tiny Lights Vs. Clustering Darkness Forever, OK?
Tunaboy45 09.03.16	beastmilk
majordevlin 09.05.16	Add this name some new band I came across called Keychain.
h0rsie 09.12.16	Steak Number Eight ?
rc239 09.16.16	DRUGS? I think you mean DRVGS
JobForAKemple 11.01.16	Some of these are excellent
sarcasticspit 11.06.16	These commenters are the worst. Clearly have no sense of humor and are way too attached to the names of the bands they like. This is a great list. Didn't listen to Neutral Milk Hotel for the longest time precisely because of the name (then eventually realized they are actually fantastic). Will never get over Death Cab for Cutie. And your comments on the names are hilarious.
Snake. 11.06.16	"Hypercritical much? Also must note some of these names were excellent at the time the artist originated, which was quite awhile go. Dance Gavin Dance is probably one of the coolest most original names that fits perfectly with their silly-fantastical-esque lyrics" man you sure told him
RedaLhioui 07.30.17	Paramore, PVRIS, Eyehategod?
Scoot 07.30.17	the [slowest runner] in all the world
Sevengill 07.30.17	you forgot Dzö-nga. punctuation? check. umlaut? check. starts with two consonants? check. unless being named after a Himalayan demon is a special exemption.
Papa Universe 07.30.17	Hmm..self-deprication, I like it
Egarran 07.30.17	Last Guy To Cum On The Bizgit Eats It
Lavair 07.31.17	18 is a Twilight Zone reference, not exactly named after the episode. The episode was named "Number 12 Looks Just Like You"
TheSupernatural 04.22.19	Adebisi Shank is reference to the character Adebisi from Oz
Rowhaus 04.22.19	We Butter the Bread With Butter and The The should be added
Kompys2000 04.22.19	The The is a great band name and you're bad for not liking it
SlothcoreSam 06.03.19	Agree on 1. I fucking hate that fucking bands name so fucking much. Had to just get that out.
Wubs 06.19.19	Haha nice list, had me some good chuckles
Wubs 06.19.19	Ok here's some. American Football, Rainbow, A perfect Circle, Porcupine Tree & The War on Drugs
JayEnder 06.19.19	The Number Twelve Looks Like You is such a stupid name that it legitimately pisses me off
TheSupernatural 06.19.19	Oh yeah American Football and The War on Drugs are really awkward names completely disassociated with what they do. At least Porcupine Tree is memorably nonsensical. I immediately imagine the redwoods that I had in my backyard growing up
Wubs 06.19.19	Yeah it's not the worst name, I guess I don't think it really matches their serious stuff. Pianos Become The Teeth? Christ lol
blastOFFitsPARTYtime 06.19.19	Going to take a stab in the dark and guess that Die! Die! Die! wouldn't do much for you as a band name.
J() Alexander 06.19.19	Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The World Is a Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid to Die, Death Cab for Cutie and Godspeed You Black Emperor! are cool.
J() Alexander 06.19.19	American Football and Pianos Become the Teeth are also cool smh (Americ Anfootball or something like that would be better tho).
Source 06.19.19	Yeah Yeah Yeahs
J() Alexander 06.19.19	"LOL The fact you hate CHVRCHES proves you have no sense of historical context. "U"s used to be spelled with a "V" until it was given a curve later on. They are simply using it's old form." But it looks like shit.
Wubs 06.19.19	CHvVvVv vVVVvvvV VVvvVvvVv vV vVvv VV vv Vv vv v V VV vv VVVVvvvVv vvvVv VvvV V V VvvV v v v v v v vvvvvvVVv vv VV vV VV V vV vvvv V v vvVv V V VVVVVRCHES
Wubs 06.19.19	Fixed
Egarran 06.19.19	Thanks for not having Behold... The Arctopus on this list.
Zig 06.19.19	The The
Rowhaus 06.19.19	Korn, System of a Down, Dream Theater
Wubs 06.20.19	'The Band' is equally bad and good
Iamthe Nightstars 06.20.19	8 got their name from a Gary Busey quote so for that reason alone it's pretty cool.
Trundle 06.20.19	I quoted busey in my highschool graduation write up
