Labrat - Or is that just a cool name?
The Itchy tits - a band of psuedo rawk chix got a passing mention on some TV show
Sheephead - Well I thought it was weird, though they are welsh so it could have a double meaning ;)
The (international) Noise conspiracy - Err.. yeah...

Just looked at some old Rock Sound CDs

Bulletproof Electric Revenue
Mercury Tilt Switch
Kids Near Water
5ive's Continuum Reasearch Project
Cars as Weapons
The Sex Machines :thumb:
Part Chimp
(X) is greater than (Y)



I knew I kept these CDs for a reason :D

I think The Big Brother and The Holding Company is a slightly weird name.

Anal c[font=font]unt[/font]

That name's probably already been said but i'm too lazy to look through the whole thread for it so...

/wins thread

My Friends band is called

'these are not the droids you are looking for'

[QUOTE=Griffin_Page]Blink 182 and Sum 41... what the hell is the meaning behind those names?[/QUOTE]

Blink 182 wanted to name their band Blink, but there was already a band called Blink, so they each chose a number and they put em together and the result was none other than: Blink 182

Sum 41 got their name because the band formed on the 41st day of summer at a Hole concert.

Toad The Wet Sprocket
Squirrel Nut Zippers
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

[QUOTE=pearljamaddict]I heard a local band called "Piggy got Pubes". I think its a really **** name, but theres just no talking to the guy who came up with it....I cant think of any bands right now that everyone has heard of with weird names. The Foo fighters is a pretty weird name, but that has something to do with the second world war, I think the Foo Fighters(the origionals, not the band) were guys sent to find alians during WWII? I dunno, cant remember[/QUOTE]

Foo Fighters is the name that was given to extremely fast fighter planes that were supposedly seen by both sides during World War Two. At the time both sides just assumed that they were more advanced fighter planes from the other side, but it was discovered after the war that neither side had been sending them up, so a lot of people have speculated that they were alien space ships.

[QUOTE=M0torBreath II]
"Red Hot Chili Peppers" is a pretty random band name [/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=extreme_191]Led Zeppilen was made up by Keith Moon, of the Who. It's an opoosite name-Lead(heavy material) Zeppilen(Famous Blimp)just like Quiet Riot, or Black Sabbath, or Alice Cooper, or Alice In Chains(It's a surprisingly successful way to discover good names)IMO.[/QUOTE]

Why is Alice Cooper an opposite? :confused:

Megadeth isthe name of a bomb. So yes, you're sorta right.

to those people who were wondering where blink got their 182 from, i believe they took it from scarface, because thats how many times Tony says f.uck in the movie, thats what the band said anyways

My two friends came up with the name "HIV Positve" that's pretty **** weird. Of course my band will not use it for the reason that we play a Bluegrass/Acid-Rock type of Rock, similar to The Grateful Dead. So it definatley wouldn't blend.

Buzzcocks

[QUOTE=LordDargon]Liquid Tension Experiment. Dillinger Escape Plan. pretty random.[/QUOTE]

Isn't Dillenger the guy who escaped from Alcatraz???


What about They Might Be Giants? Are they, or aren't they???? I'm confused... :confused:

[QUOTE=Griffin_Page]Blink 182 and Sum 41... what the hell is the meaning behind those names?[/QUOTE]


sum 41 has something to do with, how they were 41 days into the summer, or something like that, i know that its true

Add N to (X)

[QUOTE=TomHimself]There's also a band called:

!!!

How the **** do you say that?[/QUOTE]

:lol:

Planes Mistaken For Stars

Fallopean breakdance

Not only do I hate all of these emo band's names, but I think they're weird too.

Dashboard Confessional
Coheed & Cambria
Brand New
Avenged Sevenfold

I think that most of them just put a random adjective and adverb together and they have their crappy (and weird) band name

Sorry don't know if this has already been said, don't think it has so I decided to say it.

-Analy Raped by Satan

I don't know if that the right spelling for Analy, but we'll just assume so :thumb:

pretty weird name if you ask me
